Executive Coaching for School Leaders

Executive coaching offers school leaders–from heads to senior administrators to board members– a dedicated space to pause, reflect, and build the skills they need to thrive. Through expert guidance, personalized support, and proven tools like leadership assessments, role-playing, and emotional regulation exercises, our coaching helps leaders strengthen their confidence, sharpen their decision-making, and reconnect with joy in their work.

Understanding Complexity

Our coaches are certified and have extensive training and experience. They are former independent school administrators and Heads of Schools, have a deep understanding of team dynamics, and the highly unique cultures of independent schools that contribute to some of the complexities of leadership in today’s settings.

 

Skillset Development

Effective coaching results in improved confidence, effectiveness, courage, and a deeper tool box to use to address challenges.

Deeply Personalized

Leadership development is personal, reflective, and transformative. Our coaches cultivate psychological safety and maintain strict confidentiality as trust and safety are essential for growth. Non-judgmental, strengths-based support is grounded in a deep belief of every leader’s potential.

Educators Collaborative, in assisting with my Head of School transition, was tasked with assessing the school’s climate and culture as it emerged from a deeply challenging year. At every step, through in-person meetings to counseling the Board to a parent survey, EC built trust and quickly gained fluency in Galloway’s strengths and opportunities. Perhaps equally important, when faculty met with EC, they felt heard and understood. Their analysis was invaluable to me and our Board as I started my tenure.
