The agency you trust. The services you need.

ST Consulting

Our consulting division focuses on key areas of school life: leadership development, best financial practices, board development, and athletics. Our consultants serve as mentors to heads, CFOs, ADs, division leaders, and more. The best boards ensure that their school remains focused on its distinctive mission, while allowing the school's administrators to manage the everyday; we can help boards be at their best. Our school assessments thoroughly review current practices and make recommendations for a better future.

Leadership Study

Personality predicts performance.  Our unique research project uses the three-part Hogan Personality Assessment to analyze the leadership performance and potential of Independent School Heads.  In this multi-year study we asked the Heads of our nearly 700 member schools to take the Hogan Assessment and we interviewed select Heads to illuminate the results.  The sophisticated insights generated by our study provide the intellectual framework for our search services, school assessments, and executive coaching.
