From the ISM Advancement Academy Academic Dean
Charles D. Snowden, Jr.

As a Head of School, you are ultimately responsible for ensuring that all three advancement functions in your school are delivered with excellence. Understanding the symbiosis that exists among these three functions will assist you in your task of supervising the people in them, helping to insure that desired level of excellence for your school is achieved. Attending the Advancement Academy is an excellent way to begin gaining that understanding. Moreover, you will be in a position to better assist your Advancement Team with their professional growth and renewal. An often-cited leadership trait is the ability to make those around you better able to perform the tasks you have asked them to do.
