New Resource for Boards
"Hiring, Nurturing, and Evaluating the Private School Head"
Today I share with you a new resource from our friends at Independent School Management (ISM). This new publication came out this summer and features some useful guidance for board chairs and boards regarding their relationship and responsibilities in working with the Head of School.
This 130 page, soft- cover book contains eight chapters:
The Difference Between "Strategic" and "Operational"
The School Head Search
The School Head Contract
Board-Head Relationships
Your Companion Annual Agendas: Board and Administrative
Head Support and Evaluation
ISM Executive Leadership Study: The Head's Well-Being and School Success
A Change in Leadership
In each chapter there are practical tips and templates that you have the option to adapt to your own school if you desire. The book is not short on content or specific recommendations such as how to form a Head Support and Evaluation Committee or negotiate compensation. It is worth reviewing and adding to your board's resource library.
The book is available on Amazon for $31.95
