The Multi-Role Reality: Leading When You Wear Many Hats

Wednesday June 24, 2026 3:30pm - 5:00pm EDT

In small schools, leadership often means being head of school, admissions director, development officer, and crisis manager—all before lunch. This session acknowledges the unique pressures of multi-role leadership and offers practical strategies for thriving, not just surviving, in this reality. Join Beverly Fowler, Head of School at Salisbury Academy, to explore how to prioritize effectively when everything feels urgent, set boundaries that protect your energy and effectiveness, and build systems that create leverage even with limited staff. Through candid discussion and shared experiences, you'll examine when to delegate, when to let go, and how to communicate your constraints clearly to boards and stakeholders who may not fully understand the scope of your responsibilities. This is a space to name the challenges openly, learn from peers navigating similar terrain, and leave with concrete tools for managing role overload while staying connected to the mission-driven work that called you to small school leadership in the first place.
