LeadHERship Educational Solutions
Who This is For
This coaching package is designed for experienced school leaders aspiring to secure a Head of School position within the next 6–12 months. It’s ideal for Division Directors, Assistant Heads, or Interim Heads seeking to refine their leadership narrative, strengthen their candidacy, and confidently navigate the search and interview process. Participants will gain the clarity, strategy, and communication tools needed to present themselves as mission-driven, visionary leaders ready to lead at the highest level.
What You'll Come Away With
By the end of the five sessions, you’ll have a refined leadership narrative, an updated résumé and cover letter aligned with your professional vision, and the confidence to communicate your strengths with clarity and authenticity. You’ll leave with practical tools for interview success, a well-defined vision framework, and a 90-day transition plan to guide your early success as Head of School. Most importantly, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of your leadership identity—and how to position it strategically for your next chapter.
What to Expect
Each 50-minute session is tailored to your unique leadership journey and professional goals. Through guided reflection, strategic coaching, and practical tools, you’ll build clarity, confidence, and momentum in your search process. Expect a balance of honest feedback and actionable strategies designed to help you refine your narrative, communicate your vision with impact, and navigate every stage of the Head of School search with purpose and poise.
Between sessions, you’ll have access to personalized feedback on application materials, interview preparation, or strategic questions—ensuring consistent support and progress throughout the process.
