Navigating the Political Divide Among Independent School Adults

 

How do you lead by example and inspire a community of respect among adults who disagree politically?

School leaders are tasked with helping young people become diplomatic citizens who can calmly discuss the emotionally charged issues our society faces. But if the adults in your school community—faculty, staff, parents, or Trustees—feel both philosophically divided and unprepared to broach tough conversations, the task becomes much more difficult.

Your school community can move forward—with the right approach. Join Scott Wilson, ISM Executive Leadership Department Head and former Head of School at Baylor School, TN, for strategies he has used to support his leaders, teachers, staff members, families, and Trustees when it came to alignment to best support students, despite any differences between them.
