The Independent School Leadership Forum is a dynamic conference designed specifically for mid-level leaders in independent schools—division leaders, deans, associate heads, department chairs, admissions and advancement professionals, inclusion & belonging practitioners, and other key administrators.
What sets this experience apart? You’ll learn directly from heads of school, former heads, and senior leaders.

- Learn how heads think about leadership and decision-making.
- Ask questions in an open, strategic setting.
- Build connections with mentor-level leaders beyond your own institution.
- Expand your professional network with peers who understand your role.
