Target Audience: Heads of School, CFOs; participants will work in mixed groups and school-based teams

Description: This intensive six-week program is designed to help independent school leadership teams begin to develop a comprehensive and strategic approach to human capital development. From a foundation of clear values and vision and an assessment of current realities, leaders will explore how different compensation strategies might align with larger school-wide goals of recruiting, retaining, and growing a diverse and talented staff, advancing workforce equity and employee thriving, and ensuring both strategic advancement and organizational sustainability. Participants will work in mixed groups and school-based teams to develop a direction and plan, culminating in a personalized presentation deck that a Head of School and CFO might use to propose a compensation strategy to their board.

Learning Objectives and Outcomes:

• Clarity of Purpose: Clearly articulate with their team the key strategies and priorities that are driving their school at this moment, and leverage that shared clarity of purpose in analyzing and aligning the systems toward the highest priorities.
• Problem Statement & Generative Response: Articulate the driving goals (e.g. equity audit of current compensation and/or performance management system; development of school-wide compensation strategy; improved recruitment, retention, and development practices with a focus on BIPOC faculty; etc.) and use a design-thinking approach to generate and evaluate possibilities.
• Context: Identify and understand various models and approaches across schools with regards to compensation and human capital development.
• Systems Mapping: Assess the system resources, pressures, and pathways that lead to possible solutions.
• Solutions Development: Propose and support one or more viable strategies to address the problem statement(s).
• Proposal: Clearly and effectively communicate the proposed solution to a board trustee or committee.
