2024 Workshop Talk | | Leadership & Strategic
Summary
One of the constant challenges schools face is the pull to be all things to all parents. While this might seem to make sense as we often need more students and budget realities are reality, this workshop will argue and work through the reality that whether it is admissions or hiring, donor relationships or marketing, the most important thing is to know who you are and what God has called you to do. Time will be spent discussing and working together to use tools and questions that will help you tease out your school’s DNA.
