Who Should Consider This Program

This professional learning community is an opportunity for leaders of color in independent schools in California and the Northwest Association of Independent Schools (NWAIS) to reflect on and aspire forward in their journeys as leaders. For experienced, emerging and questioning leaders of color at all stages of their careers.

 

Cohort Overview

This Winter-Spring 2023 series will offer participants time and support to clarify their values, visions and goals as leaders, identify their core leadership “gots” and “growth edges”, plan forward for their own professional growth, and build and deepen vital personal and professional relationships.

With the intention of knowing and sustaining ourselves in our careers, we will lean into case studies; reflect on our own experiences; talk frankly about the challenges, opportunities and expectations for leaders of color; recognize our personal growth edges; and drill down on the skills and knowledge we have and need to thrive on our diverse professional paths.

Open to returning and new participants, this leadership professional learning community is for educators of color who want to be effective, transformative and ever-growing in their work. These working conversations will include all aspects of who we are as leaders and the complexity of the communities in which we work.

  

Meetings and Accommodations

The series will meet on four dates, beginning in January 2023, and will invite leaders of color from within and beyond independent schools to help participants reflect personally and learn collectively, based on where each participant is in their professional journey.

We have reserved a block of rooms at The Laurel Inn located in San Francisco if you are traveling from out of town for the social event and in-person session at San Francisco University High School. The room rate is $258 per night/plus tax and is not included in program cost.
