Research That Powers Our Approach
At PEMIMPIN, we believe strong decisions are rooted in strong evidence. Our work is shaped by the insights and findings of global research partners who share our commitment to improving education through effective leadership.
In partnership with Global School Leaders (GSL), their research team conducts rigorous studies, surveys, and literature reviews to identify the most effective ways to support school leaders.
