Great Workshop

Rebecca ran the ISM Upper School Heads program which I attended. I had just been hired for my first Upper School Head job, and her week long workshop prepared me to start the year on the ground running! Her planning was incredibly well organized and also responsive to the needs of the group. We learned a wide variety of topics that were relevant and continue to improve my leadership at my school. I was very grateful for her supportive approach, as well as her ongoing support of our cohort via a group thread. Rebecca is a seasoned, highly personable and relatable coach, who is a fantastic thought partner for leaders. I am grateful to have her on my team!

Incredible Partner

Rebecca is an incredible mentor and thought partner. She is the kind of person who will drop everything to support you, always following up with care and insight. When I was preparing for a job search, she reviewed my resume with a keen eye, helping me think not just about the role itself but how my resume could immediately convey my strengths to the search committee. Her thoughtful questions and guidance encouraged me to recognize and celebrate my accomplishments in a way I hadn’t before. When it came to navigating relationships with seasoned faculty as a new administrator, Rebecca provided invaluable advice. Her insights helped me approach these interactions with confidence, thoughtfulness, and a deep respect for their experience.
