NAIS Global Webinar Series: School Leaders in the U.S. and in Other Countries: Reflections, Lessons Learned, and Anticipating What’s Next

As the school year winds down, this webinar offers a space for school leaders for reflection on wins, hard lessons, and surprises across independent and international schools in the U.S. and in other countries. Homa Tavangar has supported school leaders and teams through innovation and celebration, as well as through intense polarization, operational crises, disappointing educational initiatives and other “fails.” Bring your experiences, share learnings in community, and leave with some tools for anticipatory leadership, authentic and unifying storytelling to end the year and start next year, and a process for learning from mistakes. 

Homa Tavangar is the co-founder and CEO of the Big Questions Institute, bringing 30+ years of strategic advisory experience — spanning an early career leading international business, equity and belonging, and economic development strategy for over 100 organizations, from Accenture, Disney Channel, and the University of Pennsylvania, to micro-businesses and the World Bank — to her work as a trusted leader coaching heads of school and boards through strategic planning, crises, governance, and complex organizational change across five continents.
