WHAT WE DO

Our Principles

Over the last several years the creators of the Executive Coaching Program have studied the transition of leadership in independent schools, interviewing current and former heads; board chairs; search committee chairs; and heads of search firms in order to shape a program designed to maximize the ability and skills of each new school head. Here are the principles that inform our work and some of the ways we teach new heads and their schools about them:

“Principles of Good Practice for Leadership Transition”
“Executive Coaching in the Time of Transition”
“What Sets us Apart?”

HOW WE THINK

White Papers

Our executive coaches have given a great deal of thought to the transition of leadership in independent schools, and have written important papers on key topics.

I have had the privilege of working with Mary Menacho as my coach for this school year beginning in July 2018. She has provided me with a wealth of her expertise and knowledge while guiding me to make some difficult and important decisions. Mary is the perfect coach for me for many reasons: she knows the culture of our school and has a clear idea of our mission and our community. She is a valued resource and available to me whenever I need her guidance. She always helps me to validate the ideas that I have and she provides me with the confidence to carry out my vision. She is a trusted coach, teacher, friend, and a respected treasure to me this year.
