What We Believe

We believe that schools and not for profits thrive when their boards and leaders work in partnership, empowered by shared purpose. We help you work together to plan strategically, harness your talent, and build capacity to execute. We integrate consulting, coaching, facilitation and industry expertise so you can tackle your future with confidence.

 

Leadership is
Learning in Action

Globalization and the acceleration of digital technology are changing how we learn, work, compete, collaborate and develop resources. Sustainable organizations are nimble and adaptive– but how do you stay flexible and keep everyone working together throughout the process? GLP helps you understand, embrace and adjust to change. 

We learn together in context, by doing the work and recalibrating - acknowledging John Dewey’s great insight:
“we learn by reflecting on experience”

Focus on What Matters Most in Leadership

Great governance and leadership rely upon the inventiveness of your questions, awareness of the larger context of your organization, the empowerment of your colleagues to lead with you, and the fidelity to your humanity in times of challenge.

See the World Beyond Your Own
Because we know that creative solutions often exist outside of your current context.

Constantly Develop Leadership in Your Organization
Because you’re only as strong as the team you build and the people you empower.

Face Challenges with Grace and Action
Because successful leaders don’t blink at problems: they define and tackle them.

Start with Questions, Rather than Answers
Because defining the problem correctly is the first step toward a sustainable solution.

We are excited to announce our new book,
Creating Schools That Thrive.

 
 
 

Creating Schools That Thrive is a comprehensive guidebook for designing strategy and catalyzing change. Since 2010, Stephanie Rogen and her group, Greenwich Leadership Partners, have supported leadership and governance for dozens of independent schools and public school districts, as well as higher educational organizations and education‑based not‑for‑profits. Their process, outlined in this book, addresses exactly what schools want most: how to develop and execute strategy that is dynamic, adaptive, and actualizes a compellingly clear and unique value proposition. With step-by-step guidance, interactive exercises, checklists, project tools, and real-life anecdotes your school will build the capacity to brainstorm the big ideas, make the right choices, and implement them with real metrics to track success.
