Partnerships

A founding principle of Dialogic Learning is to “Put Relationships First” That is why every school client partnership is long term. This means we commit to working in partnership for 12 months or more.

Dialogic Learning draws upon a wide range of experience supporting client projects internationally, including Australia, Japan, China, Taiwan, New Zealand, US, Denmark, Spain, UK, Switzerland, Netherlands, UAE and Russia.

I have worked with Tom in many different contexts and cultures. In every case he has contributed significantly to my own thinking, and also that of my teams. His work and his wisdom does indeed ‘make a difference’.
