Want to know more about the Emerging Leaders Program for independent school educators?

Earlier today we opened up registration in the Emerging Leaders Program, a one-day professional development event on October 22nd, 2014 with followup this winter. Curious? Click here to jump to the invitation.

Emerging Leaders sprang out of feedback several years ago from the CalWest Advisory Board. It serves as a step along the leadership path for independent school educators. This year’s curriculum is both deeper and broader than any past events we’ve had. The audience has been narrowed while the content and contact has been expanded.

Should you attend? We’ve geared the event to teachers who want to move into an administrative position within the next few years, as well as to current administrators who want to learn some skills and perspective to move into a more senior leadership position within the next 2-4 years.

Who should not attend? Teachers who want to be leaders from within their classrooms. We have enormous respect for this type of leadership, and a future version of Emerging Leaders will serve that audience.

We’re limiting the number of participants to 40, with each school being able to send 1 or 2 participants. Nominations from a head of school, division head, or other senior leader get the ball rolling - here is the registration form.

Care to know more? Contact my colleague Jui Joshi (jjoshi@calwesteducators.com) who is leading this initiative. Or you can reach me at fleisch@calwesteducators.com.

More details to come in the next few weeks. Have a terrific Tuesday!
