Thanks for championing a liberal arts education, which lays the foundation for lifelong learning, nurturing an innate curiosity and the ability to ask deeper, more insightful questions. By exploring various disciplines, students gain a holistic understanding of the world, allowing them to connect ideas across fields and foster innovation. This education also emphasizes ethical reasoning and civic responsibility, shaping graduates into not just skilled professionals but also conscientious global citizens. In an era of rapid technological and industrial change, the adaptability and resilience fostered by a liberal arts education are crucial, equipping individuals to learn new skills and pivot their careers as needed. Moreover, by engaging with diverse cultures, histories, and philosophies, students develop empathy and effective communication skills, essential for building strong relationships and leading with understanding in both professional and personal realms.

It is so important for students to see themselves represented in influential leadership positions at school, showing them what's possible for their own lives and careers. However, while the number of school-aged Black and Latino children has increased significantly, Black and Latino men make up only 13% of school principals in the U.S. To help ensure students see themselves reflected in the educators and leaders around them, NFBLME: The National Fellowship for Black and Latino Male Educators is working to close this gap. Through its unique programming, the organization helps Black and Latino men become principals and leaders throughout the education sector. https://lnkd.in/eeH-Jmwg

Founded as The Registry for College and University Presidents more than 30 years ago, The Registry is now the premier provider of interim leadership in higher education. Two former university presidents, Tom Langevin and Allen Koenig, sought a way for college presidents to remain engaged in higher education in their retirement. They created a new model, a redefinition, of interim leadership. Their innovative business model and their connections throughout the industry quickly redefined what interim leadership could be; taking what was previously a largely transitional mode of leadership to a way to help institutions deploy highly experienced leaders as intentional, transformational interim administrators. The highly experienced outside interim became accepted as a new way of managing both transitions and change. If you need an interim, call The Registry. #theregistry #interimleadership #intentionalleadership #highereducation #OneZRG
