Feedback from last year's participants: What was the most valuable aspect of the Institute?
| ~ It was a great opportunity to grow in my understanding of independent school headship among peers at similar stages of their administrative journey. ~ The valuable info shared by experienced heads. Honesty and transparency. Real-world advice! ~ Very thorough. Built upon what we learned last year. Meeting other heads and making connections. ~ The small group discussions and Q & A ~ I have recommended this to my colleagues even if they had no interest in becoming a head. The leadership, communication, finance and fundraising are helpful to leaders at all levels. |
