The decisions that a Board makes today will be felt immediately and years from now. As Board President, you understand this, and you’re always looking for the best ways to keep your school viable and sustainable through the good times and the bad.

This weekend workshop will help you survive now and thrive in the years to come by giving you access to leadership, assessment, and planning strategies developed through ISM’s work with Boards at hundreds of private-independent schools.

ISM recommends that schools develop or refine a suite of Purpose and Outcome Statements. This webinar will walk attendees through what each of those statements means and the steps for creating them to clearly differentiate your school from the competition.

This webinar is meant to give you an overview of an effective approach to managing leadership change in schools. The purpose of a leadership assimilation process is to make a conscious effort to avoid the all-too-human elements that threaten the development of a trusting team. It is a simple learning model that is efficient, engaging, and meaningful for any team with a new leader.

The Upper School Dean of Students must balance working as an advocate for the students and as a disciplinarian to support the school culture. Attend this workshop to explore how to manage these roles while furthering your school’s mission and keeping students first in everything that you do.

Get the big-picture view of the factors most impacting your ability to recruit and re-recruit mission-appropriate students. Through ISM’s admission funnel model, observe sound strategies, common pitfalls, and well-developed solutions to the most frequent issues arising in private school Admission Offices.

Growth and change can either excite and energize a school community, or cause concern and incite resistance. Examine and build upon your own leadership style to empower others and foster a healthy, positive culture that embraces mission-centered initiatives to serve the best interests of your students.
