2025 Institute for Heads
Engage with other heads at this energizing and nurturing retreat offering thoughtful, nuanced conversations on complex issues facing heads of school.
Expect conversations with other heads who understand exactly what your days are like. There will be humor, there will be validation, there will be community, and there will be uplift.
Led by Rob Evans and Michael Thompson. Past participants have praised Rob & Michael for their facilitation style and ability to push, pull, and explore with the group rather than offering generic solutions. They help you help each other.
Spouses are encouraged to attend and participate in sessions. Usually about half of the attendees bring a spouse.
