National Women’s Leadership Consortium

Women educators, leading learning.

Women in leadership and education

Strong schools need strong leaders at every level. Âܲ·AVÊÓÆµis committed to building pathways for women leaders who are shaping the future of public education.

AASA's National Women's Leadership Consortium brings together women leaders from across the education landscape—from classrooms to boardrooms, districts to policy tables.

 

Women Educators, Leading Learning
The Consortium will explore:
  • Transforming School Culture
  • Ensuring Every Student Succeeds
  • Leading with Heart
  • Financial Wellness for Leaders
  • Building Capacity Across Systems
  • Sustaining Your Well-Being
  • Mentoring Rising Talent
  • Leading Innovation in a Digital Age
  • Navigating Challenge and Change

When women educators lead learning (#AASAWELL), we expand what's possible for every student in every community..

Who should participate?
Women superintendents and other school district leaders, and/or corporate or nonprofit leaders who are innovators and risk-takers. We are bringing together women who advance opportunities for all children by the example they set and the way they advocate!
