PRE-CONFERENCE SPOTLIGHT: Good Governance International School Boards: Governing with Agility Sunday. February 2, 2025 The challenge of guiding an international school today requires agility in both leadership and governance. Governing with agility demands a balance of steadfast commitment to the school's mission and strategic priorities with the nimbleness to adjust to and accommodate for major shifts in the context in which the school exists. The goal of this pre-conference is to provide school leaders and governors with an understanding of the essentials of "agile" governance and give them a familiarity with the resources and materials available through the AAIE Good Governance Project.

This week’s for the AAIE Global Leaders Conversation: AI Has Helped Reclaim 40% of an Educator's Time: Now What? If AI tools and resources enabled you (and the educators in your community) to reclaim almost 40% of the time you used to spend on the operational and administrative aspects of being an educator - the question is: what is the plan for this found time? If we do not reinvest this gift that AI will bestow upon us strategically, it will disappear, and we will never be able to recapture it. This moment - the reinvestment of reclaimed time - could be the most important and impactful opportunity in at least a century and truly transform the Teaching and Learning journey in our schools.
