I’m Christina. I’m a Retention Consultant for International School Leaders.




I help school leaders address the invisible factors influencing teacher turnover.
Together we’ll improve internal communication on campus and you’ll end each school day knowing your community members are invested, not about to resign.


I help school leaders save thousands of dollars (and their energy) by addressing the factors of retention before top educators leave.
How? By improving the communication between faculty and leaders.

Testimonials



Christina Kottmann
I was an elementary teacher for 10 years in international schools.
During the pandemic I become a liaison between teachers and leaders, and identified how crucial internal communication was to maintaining school culture while we weren't on campus. Since then I've followed my calling to support educators and address the issues in education.
I believe every school has the potential to be a thriving community where top teachers invest their time, energy, and expertise, and feel they are supported and encouraged to voice their ideas.
I believe that real reform in education starts with teacher wellbeing.
I believe school leaders are uniquely positioned to be levers of change on campus, by inviting honest communication and modeling accountability.
