Are you thinking about a career as an Episcopal school head? If the answer is “Yes,” then you should plan to attend the Jonathan T. Glass Institute For Future Leaders. Whether you are currently working in an Episcopal school, in another independent school setting, or in the public schools, this is the gathering that will help you:
- learn about the full range of responsibilities of modern-day school headship
- understand the specific implications of Episcopal school identity for the head of an Episcopal parish, cathedral, diocesan, independent, or other school
- familiarize yourself with the steps and processes involved in a head of school search
- explore concepts of leadership in difficult and morally challenging times, and
- reflect on your call to headship and whether you are the right person to be a head of school.
Through meals, shared worship, and social time, you will also develop a circle of colleagues and friends on which you can rely, both personally and professionally. You will leave Austin refreshed and encouraged for the journey of personal and professional discernment that awaits you.
We look forward to seeing you at what we are certain will be a thought-provoking and fun event!
