Yan Gaa Duuneek: An examination of Indigenous transformational leadership pedagogies in BC higher education by Dr. Todd Ormiston

kia ora... I wanted to share another great PhD Thesis by Dr. Todd Ormiston (2012) Yan Gaa Duuneek: An examination of Indigenous transformational leadership pedagogies in BC higher education. In his thesis Todd explores traditional concepts of Indigenous leadership and how they are being applied today within post-secondary education. I especially like his creativity of methodology choice: i.e. linking Tlingit philosophies, the Medicine Wheel Teachings and in particularly his own personal Canoe Journey. Great job Todd, another great read and contribution to Indigenous theory and pedagogies. Taima
