Show Notes: Gregory Mose, an English major, currently lives in Aix-en-Provence where he is the director of international relations and professor of International Law at a small American University program called the American College of the Mediterranean.  When he graduated, his parents wanted him to go to Law School, but Greg wanted to travel. He was offered a teaching fellow position at Athens College in Greece, and he fell in love with the place and the experience. He returned to the US and law school at Duke where he met his wife.   Working for United Nations Greg's interest in international public international law led him to work for the UN during Yugoslavia's war crimes tribunal research project. He secured a two-year contract with the UN High Commissioner for Refugees in Conakry, Guinea, which was a paranoid, isolated place. He worked with refugees there for two years, traveling through Mali, Timbuktu, Dakar, Freetown, Abidjan, and upcountry Guinea. During this time, he helped resettle some people to the United States. Greg's experience in Conakry was both powerful and passionate. He helped resettle some people to the United States who wouldn't be able to be resettled today. However, he returned home underweight and suffering from malaria and PTSD. A Career Changes: Director of International Relations - Stay-at-home Dad Greg joined his fiance in London. After a period of recovery, Greg secured a job in corporate law at an international firm in London. He worked on IPOs and was hired as a young US lawyer in securities practices. After three years, he moved to a London-based firm, Freshfields, Brookhouse, Deringer.  Greg and his wife had their son in 2002 and decided to raise their son themselves rather than handing him over to a nanny. He decided to leave his job to write a novel and raise their son while his wife worked at the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development. They considered downsizing and moving to the English countryside or getting more remote to facilitate a change in lifestyle. However, after spending time in the South West of France, they decided to do something radical and bought a medieval farmhouse and land in the South West of France, near a village called Montcabrier.  Village Life in Wine Country Greg describes their experience living in a wine region called the Lot, near the Dordogne, in the southwest. The village had about 30 full-time residents, but most people  lived in farmhouses outside the village. The village had a two-room schoolhouse, a bakery, and a mayor's office. Greg and his family rented out renovated three holiday cottages in summers to families with small children. They built a playground, swimming pool, and a beautiful field on their property. Greg also shares his experiences with their neighbors. He also learned how to use a chainsaw and finished his novel, Stunt Road. However, as their son grew older, they decided they needed a bigger centre with more activities and schools. They moved to Aix-en-Provence. Working in Education Greg didn't know what he was going to do there, but they enrolled their son in the International School where he was hired to teach a critical thinking course called Theory of Knowledge at the International Baccalaureate program. He became a high school teacher for 10 years and realized his love for teaching, and eventually wanted to teach at university. He decided to pursue a PhD program at French universities, which were affordable. The tuition for a PhD was about $500 a year.  Greg mentions the benefits of social programs in France. He eventually became a full-time professor at the American College in Aix and runs a master's program in international relations. Integration with French Culture Greg's life is different from what people think it is like living in Southern France. He finds it challenging to integrate into the country. In the rural areas, French culture is radically different, with people being warm but also private. Weekends are spent with family, and they do not easily invite people into their homes. However, he finds warmth in the greetings and the respect shown to others. This reinforces a tradition of treating each other as equals and respect. He also talks about how his students from abroad adjust to French culture.  Back to London and Recovery Greg thinks back to 1998 when he  arrived in North London with his fiance and was unemployed. He had been working at UNHCR, which provided decent pay. However, he was always physically cold and underweight due to his previous experiences with malaria and the constant heat in the tropical climate. He was exhausted from the work and the influx of refugees during the renewed violence in Freetown. One of his bouts of malaria occurred while doing a refugee census in the forest region. He spent three days in a room full of bugs and had limited access to food. He talks about how he broke down and found it was cathartic for him. He talks about a particularly difficult time, and how he teaches a course on armed conflict, linking it to genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes, and refugees. Large glass He often shares anecdotes from his time there, but admits that sometimes he struggles to get through them. Influential Harvard Professors and Courses Greg mentions his first year English course with Helen Vendler. He recalls a kind act of kindness from her. He also mentions professor Burriss Young, who was the Associate Dean of freshmen at the time and lived in Mass Hall. Burriss was an archeologist, and he invited students to tea in his apartment filled with archeological artifacts. This made his first year at Harvard a magical experience. Greg, coming from LA, idealized Harvard. He had a wonderful time in Cabot House, and Greg believes that these experiences will be a lasting memory for him.  Timestamps: 04:44: Early Career and UN Experience 09:31: Transition to Corporate Law and Family Life  22:55: Return to Education and Teaching Career  30:10: Life in Southern France and Cultural Adjustments  40:37: Personal Reflections and Professional Growth  45:02: Memorable Experiences and Influences from Harvard    Links: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gregorymose/ Stunt Road, by Gregory Mose: https://amzn.to/46Orq4X The American College of the Mediterranean: https://www.acmfrance.org/ Greg's Blog: https://quercychronicles.wordpress.com/ Featured Non-profit: The featured non-profit of this week's episode is recommended by Keith Quinn who reports: “Hi.

We are excited to host Raffaello Manacorda on this episode of the Mangu.tv podcast series. Raffaello is an international Tantra teacher and practitioner with over 15 years of experience. He has undergone intensive training in various styles of Yoga. After completing a Master's degree in Philosophy, Raffaello spent more than twelve years living in alternative communities, experimenting with radically alternative lifestyles. During this period, he encountered Tantra, which developed into a lifelong practice. He serves as lead faculty at the International School of Temple Arts (ISTA) and teaches and lectures worldwide. Raffaello is currently enrolled in a Ph.D. program in Wisdom Studies at Ubiquity University in California. He is also the co-creator of the ISTA Practitioner Training, a program for coaches and practitioners in the field of conscious sexuality. Raffaello discusses conscious sexuality, from his perspective, breaking down the three parts within us from a scientific, political and spiritual framework as well as sharing his perspective on unconscious sexuality.  He looks at the origins, necessity and problematic nature of polarity in sexuality. Giancarlo and Raffaello discuss to what extent conscious sexuality can be a transpersonal practice. They speak about some of the most controversial sexual practices, and polarities of non-consensual enlightenment vs. a hyper-individualised society and cult of consent. Furthermore, at which point an individual is a set of habits, beliefs and preconceptions, with experiences informed by discomfort and ego, etc. They share a need for a happy medium, over the tendency to lean towards extremes.

Send us a textIn this insightful conversation, Conrad Hughes, Director General at the International School of Geneva, shares his 30-year journey in education across three continents. Beginning with his roots in South Africa and schooling, Conrad discusses his educational philosophy centered on "seeing" people—recognizing their inherent gifts and helping transform those gifts into talents Educational Journey and PhilosophyConrad reflects on his challenging experiences in an all-boys Catholic school during apartheid and his transformative high school years where literature and art became his passion. He credits his father's gift of books for fostering his lifelong love of knowledge.Leadership and FeedbackDrawing on John Hattie and Helen Temporal's model, Conrad emphasizes the importance of contextual understanding in feedback and planning for growth. He highlights how his coaching experience with Ericsson taught him the value of self-awareness and perspective-taking in leadership.AI in EducationConrad discusses his school's thoughtful approach to AI integration, developed in collaboration with UNESCO. Rather than seeing technology as an end goal, he demonstrates how AI can enhance thinking when used intentionally—from generating exam questions to extending brainstorming activities.Reimagining AssessmentConrad introduces his alternative assessment model, the "learner passport," which recognizes students' interdisciplinary skills and personal growth beyond traditional high-stakes testing. This system acknowledges competencies in various areas, including extracurricular activities and entrepreneurial work.Creating Psychological SafetyThroughout the conversation, Conrad emphasizes the importance of creating environments where students feel safe, supported, and free to develop their unique potential—a philosophy that extends to his leadership approach with colleagues as well.Conrad's book on assessment is available on the Brill website, and he welcomes connections through LinkedIn for those interested in continuing the conversation about educational innovation.Connect with Conrad: LinkedIn  WebsiteYou can also get free access to Conrad's latest book here.

You'll get an overview of the model in this series, and how the three elements of Clarity, Consistency and Community can be used to develop and refine your individual coaching practice and your coaching program in your school.  This series is designed to be an annual refresh of your coaching practice - even if you've heard some of the episodes before, every time you listen, when you reflect back on your growth over the last academic year, you'll be able to take something new away to apply in your practice in the next academic year.

This #WorldEnvironmentDay, I'm delighted to be talking with Rohan Neel Shah, a 17-year-old 11th-grade student based in Nairobi, Kenya. Growing up in a country where nature, wildlife, and the outdoors are part of everyday life has deeply influenced his worldview. Since the age of two, his parents have taken him to Kenya's national parks, instilling in him a profound love and passion for nature and conservation. We talk through his upbringing, love for photography, Jeffrey Wu's mentorship, and the sort of values that drive his craft. We also dive into Plastiki Rafiki, a non-profit student-led club at the International School of Kenya that is turning plastics into a resource while providing livelihoods for local people through creative manufacturing and product design. Enjoy and be inspired to take action.

As coaches we work so hard to support others that we can often forget how important it is to take care of ourselves too. But, as Cindy Tisdale-McPhee said on a very early episode of the podcast, for coaches to be present for others, they must take care of themselves first. This is a special #coachbetter collaborative episode with Kim Cofino and Diana Beabout because both of them have had an extra challenging year, and when they were chatting about how they've managed being at max capacity all year, they realized that some of our strategies might be helpful for you too!

The landscape is pretty bleak. In the race to produce more Ivy League-worthy students, Indian schools are selectively opting to teach IB. Teachers, in turn, find themselves shifting between the Cambridge and IB syllabi, often trying out things they aren't trained for. Students and parents, meanwhile, are running in circles trying to find an able tutor after spending Rs 5–20 lakh on their child's education. It helps no one that there are just a handful of dedicated, IB-trained teachers in the whole of India who can help students with the demanding curriculum.Enter Sparkl Edventure.With Sparkl, the former CEO of Aakash Institute is betting on these schools' inadequacies and our obsession with private tutoring. Tune in. Daybreak is produced from the newsroom of The Ken, India's first subscriber-only business news platform.

Hello and welcome to episode #26 of season 1 of the LILA Lions Athletics Podcast! This bilingual athletics podcast contains interviews, news and recaps from coaches, student-athletes, and the Athletics team at the International School of Los Angeles.

This #coachbetter episode is a highlight from one of Kim's favorite episodes from a previous season, featuring Ange Molony, Secondary School Vice Principal at Discovery College in Hong Kong. Kim and Ange talk about how informal leaders, like instructional coaches, can advocate for equity in their school setting.  Instructional coaches are fortunate to engage with so many different stakeholders throughout their work, and they may have relationships and experiences with other community members that provide insight that other formal leaders don't have. When we have the opportunity to advocate for others, instructional coaches have a variety of pathways to start or continue that conversation. This conversation with Ange highlights her own experience in being an advocate, and may provide insight for you to consider how you do something similar in your school setting.  Find the show notes for this episode here.

The International School of Temple Arts (ISTA) utilizes the Large Group Awareness Training (LGAT) model. It focuses on sexual intimacy with the promise of spiritual transformation. Cara gives a fascinating account of her eight-year marriage to a one-on-on guru, who claimed to be descended from both Mesmer and Gurdjieff. She then relates her intriguing experiences with ISTA which breaks down sexual barriers as an LGAT. Cara now questions the ethics and possible negative consequences of ISTA as well as ISTA's refusal to take responsibility for those consequences or change practices that can have harmful consequences. Dave has a long experience of LGATs. They are part of a discussion about the ethics and efficacy of LGATs and are in discussion with others who have worked as trainers to see if there is an ethical framework in which group encounter can be safely and productively applied.Links:Korean Mock "Funerals" for a better lifeIra Chaleff's work on Courageous Followership and Intelligent DisobedienceLippman's Socrates for Six-Year-OldsMore on the Bear-Fedio indexMore on Decult

Send us a textJoe Toler takes us on a fascinating journey through his career as an athletic director across six countries in 12 years, culminating in his current role at the International School of London in Qatar. What began as a teaching career in Houston transformed into an international adventure building comprehensive athletic and activity programs for students around the world.At the International School of London Qatar, Joe oversees three vital components of student life beyond academics: athletics, after-school activities, and the innovative "Week Without Walls" program. He shares how he transformed informal student-initiated sports teams into structured programs with formal seasons and coaching staff. The school now participates in both local conferences and international tournaments across Bahrain, Dubai, and beyond—creating life-changing opportunities for students from grades 2 through 12.Joe's philosophy centers on holistic student development rather than using athletics as leverage for academic performance. "If kids can leave our programs as better people with stronger characters, it's a win every day," he explains. This refreshing approach creates support systems where teachers, coaches, parents and administrators collaborate to help struggling students without removing valued activities from their lives. As an advisor to the International Association of Athletic Administrators and Coaches (IAAAC), Joe also helps foster professional development for athletic leaders worldwide, creating a community that ultimately benefits thousands of international students.
