Events

Join fellow academic department chairs, deans, and division heads for a holistic survey of leadership skills and best practices. This AISNE event will create a space for meeting peers in similar roles in other New England independent schools and collectively building energy and capacity for the school year ahead.

Academic department chairs, deans, and division heads require a unique blend of leadership presence, managerial skill, and relational strength. Together we’ll explore the challenges and opportunities inherent in these roles that manage from the middle of a school’s staff and faculty structures. 

As a gathering or meeting of people with shared roles centered on academics, curriculum, and teaching and learning this experience will offer you time to:

• Explore the real-world complexities of academic leadership in independent schools
  
• Reflect on your personal leadership style and goals
  
• Strengthen your feedback and communication skills
  
• Connect with peers who share your role, challenges, and aspirations
  
• Develop a practical action plan to bring new insights back to your school

The symposium includes structured sessions with facilitators, role-based discussions, collaborative problem-solving, leadership workshops, and time for networking and community.
