Welcome to Convergence — Lead. Learn. Inspire
Hi, I’m Dr. Tania Blatti, an international school leader, deep thinker, researcher, learning, teaching and curriculum enthusiast and someone who probably has too many tabs open (literally and mentally). I’ve spent almost 20 years in international education, working across Australia, the UAE, South Korea, and now China. My work lives somewhere between big-picture strategy and small, meaningful moments, like a really thoughtful unit plan or an unexpected conversation that shifts your whole perspective on education. I believe schools are at their best when learning is purposeful, leadership is human, and people feel seen. Also: good snacks help.
I hold a PhD in Education, with research focused on collective teacher efficacy — in short, how believing in each other makes us better. It’s a fancy way of saying: culture matters, people matter, and no one improves in isolation.
I’m also a parent of two wonderfully curious, bilingual kids who are growing up between cultures — and who regularly remind me that life doesn’t follow a planner (but it definitely requires one). I’ve been known to reimage curriculum, lead change and have way too many books and research papers in progress at once.
I enjoy making sense of the messy bits, problem solving, bringing clarity and vision without losing compassion, and injecting just enough humour to get through moments of challenge. I take the work seriously — just not myself.
This blog isn’t a brand, and it’s not trying to sell you anything.
It’s just a space where I pause, notice, and write things down.
Sometimes it’s reflective. Sometimes it’s a bit messy. Sometimes it’s funny (well, I try).
Always honest.
Thanks for reading.
Why Convergence – Lead. Learn. Inspire
I chose the name Convergence because it captures something I believe deeply:
That powerful things happen when ideas, people, and experiences come together.
Not to become the same — but to meet, align, and create something more meaningful.
Schools are full of these moments.
Where leadership meets learning.
Where strategy meets heart.
Where students, teachers, and communities grow alongside one another — not apart.
The words Lead. Learn. Inspire. reflect the rhythm I see (and strive for) in this work:
We lead with purpose.
We learn with curiosity.
We inspire through action.
This blog is about those moments of convergence — big and small — that make school life both challenging and deeply rewarding.
Welcome. I hope something here resonates.
Thanks for reading Convergence—Lead. Learn. Inspire.!
