I don’t have the time to set aside an hour a day to think about this

If you don’t feel you have the time, then you and your team definitely need to take out this time.

This program isn’t going to appear on any school budget line or timetable… but knowing how to make relationships work underpins every initiative on your plan. If you don’t have time, you need to do this to give yourself more time for the stuff that matters. You’ll be more effective, your team will be more effective and able to carry the load. 

I am struggling to cope with today, let alone any kind of big thinking.

We're going to give you the framework to think more clearly about what you're doing with your brand today, and what you can do with it over time. There's no pressure to change everything now - that's why we give you the course for life. The learning will never be over, but we can make it simpler by showing you the shortcuts that we've spent over 60 collective years learning. 

We’ve done this work with some of the most successful schools and leaders in the world. All of them benefitted from understanding brand strategy better. But we also realised that there is almost nothing out there for people working in brand, communications, marketing, admissions and advancement in schools. What there is costs a lot more than the course, and comes around once in a blue moon.

"I’m not the one with the problem - how does this help the rest of my team?" You might be walking the talk already without really knowing how you do it. This program will help you identify each element of your own, existing process, and show how it fits into a concrete, reliable framework. That means you and your team can consistently perform in the way you do on your best days. Bring your teammates along - we've made each member's participation $500 after you've made the initial commitment. That means they could be getting the course and twelve months of coaching for as little as an additional $23 an hour. 

We normally do our professional learning in one go at the start of the year. Can this work online?

Let’s be honest: leadership and training retreats of a weekend or less never delivered a full strategy, and certainly didn’t get it working quickly, on the ground. By working online, in an intensive burst, you’ll see a greater impact than if you were to go it alone after just a day or two of inservice training.

After each intensive series of live sessions, you choose the areas you're going to develop in practice right at that moment. You'll become an expert in some areas - your cohort teammates will become experts in others. 

Do I have loads to do over and above the online live sessions?

NoTosh courses are all about making change happen. We don't really need to see essays and research to know if the course is making a difference: we'll hear about what you're putting into practice, right there during the learning. 

Our celebration event is a chance to reflect and catalogue those successes so that you can build on your own progress, and learn from your peers in the network. 

If you can show you did something, and that you've reflected on its impact, then you'll get a course certificate. 

It is highly beneficial for participants to attend the live sessions. This allows for real-time interaction, engagement, and the opportunity to ask questions directly to the facilitators. However, we understand that if you're in the Americas a 5am or earlier start isn't palatable (unless your a Hollywood actor just finishing their 3am yoga session).

That's where our session recordings come in.

By providing session recordings, participants have the flexibility to access the course content at their own convenience. They can watch and review the sessions at any time, ensuring they don't miss out on any valuable information. This asynchronous learning option allows participants to still benefit from the course, even if they are unable to attend the live sessions.

In terms of pricing, we are excited to offer an automatic 30% discount to participants from North or South America. This discount will be applied if you email us directly ([email protected]), making it easier for eligible participants to access your course at a more affordable price. Please note that taxes will be added at the point of invoicing, based on your location. This ensures compliance with local tax regulations and provides a transparent invoicing process.

We hope this explanation clarifies the options available to potential participants and highlights the benefits of both live and asynchronous learning. If you have any further questions or need assistance with anything else, please don't hesitate to let us know.
