The Canadian Mindset“Canadians are less interested in ranking schools than in knowing that every school is a good school.”
Bricker and Greenspon, Searching for Certainty.

Yet, we need to know how we do as a system…
• International measures?

• Meeting the needs of all learners?

Leadership Mindsets
INQUIRY
Questions before directions
• Narrative• Appreciative• Problem-based• Reflective• Spiral of Inquiry

![Page 35: Leadership Mindsets: Innovation and Learning in the Transformation of Schools Kootenay School Leaders October 16 - 17 2009 Dr. Linda Kaser & Dr. Judy.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032414/56649eef5503460f94bffc38/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Leaders with an inquiry habit of mind do not presume an outcome; instead they allow for a range of outcomes and keep searching for increased understanding and clarity. Inquiry mindedness demands engagement in questioning, reflecting and decision-making.
Helen Timperley and Lorna Earl Professional Learning Conversations: Challenges in Using Evidence (2008)
Inquiry - A Leadership Mindset
![Page 36: Leadership Mindsets: Innovation and Learning in the Transformation of Schools Kootenay School Leaders October 16 - 17 2009 Dr. Linda Kaser & Dr. Judy.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032414/56649eef5503460f94bffc38/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
• Narrative - what is the dominant story? Who are the heroes? Villains? Themes?
“Stories are not only the way in which we come to ascribe significance to experiences … but also they are one of the primary means through which we constitute our very selves … we become who we are through telling stories about our lives and living the stories we tell.”
Forms of Inquiry
