What do you do when you have a @MissionAndData work flight and layover at DFW the night before the @Eagles vs @dallascowboys game? Wear your Eagles hat, turn on the @SportsRadioWIP @Audacy recording of @RealGlenMacnow and @MikeSielski, and nod knowingly at other Eagles fans in sea of Cowboys gear. #FlyEaglesFly – at Dallas, TX

Thank you to Susan Baldridge for the shoutout at the opening keynote of the @TABSorg Conference last week. We love @MissionAndData being TABS strategic data partner. @KVroomEdu

It has been a fantastic corner-to-corner (Miami to Seattle) week with a couple lovely days home in the middle. Thank you to @FCIS_FKC , Nicole Robison, and the team at @FCISnews and Mark Crotty, Emily McGrath, and the team at @NWAISconnect . It was a joy to present with @OverlakeSchool head-elect and @MissionAndData affiliate consultant Gretchen Warner on effective governance committees and to sit in on Christina Dotchin and Allison Davis' session previewing @EnrollmentORG 's upcoming Ride to Independent Schools report. @CliffKling and I were able to be together in person following Mission & Data's announcement last week that he will be joining our firm to launch our executive compensation practice. Plus, we shared dinner with Brett Jacobsen (who gave a wonderful keynote) and Ethan Shapiro who caught us up on the exciting things happening at Saint Andrew's School. Gretchen and I even ran into Elizabeth Kolb Farr in person! Out west with @NWAISconnect, I loved reconnecting with Antonio Viva before his exciting opening keynote and presenting about building trust when everyone is a skeptic and another session on mission-driven data-informed decision making (after getting a beautiful morning run along the water). On my way to the airport, I saw @peterdbaron before his big day on Tuesday and Alex Halladay after her award-winning time at EMA AC. And...if that wasn't enough, I managed to stay on East Coast time. It was G-R-E-A-T to be with so many wonderful people.

Before dressing up in our Halloween costumes on Tuesday, Anne-Marie Balzano and I spent Monday in a strategic planning retreat with Amani Reed, administrators, faculty, parents, and trustees of University School of Nashville. Thank you @theNMAAM for hosting us in their beautiful and engaging facility. This is a must-visit place for anyone in Nashville marrying important historical narrative, stunning visuals, and exceptional music. @MissionAndData #MissionDrivenDataInformedStrategicPlanning

Jay Rapp and I enjoyed a Friday retreat kicking off a new project with Anabelle Morgan and the Leadership Team at @CACougars. @MissionAndData – at Alexandria, VA

Exciting initiative from @NBOAnet and the Edward E. Ford Foundation about innovative faculty and staff compensation models. So impressed by the agility of special grant funding by @jgulla and the EEFord board + @shieldsNBOA, @schuermdawg and the NBOA team. nboa.org/net-assets/article/…

Fun starting my birthday with this in my podcast feed. Loved sitting down with ⁦@hmundahl⁩ from ⁦@EnrollmentORG⁩, @debra_p_wilson from ⁦@SAISnews⁩, & Darryl Ford from ⁦@PennCharter⁩ as our 1st #EMAImpossibleQuestions episode of 2022 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

“Is financial aid as we know it broken?” I so enjoyed this conversation with @hmundahl and Mark Mitchell, Vice President at @NAISnetwork, on the newest episode of “EMA’s Impossible Questions Podcast”. @EnrollmentORG @MissionAndData podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas… – at Danvers, MA

Sunrise on the move and breakfast in Brooklyn catching up with @jgulla… a pretty great way to start a Wednesday in NYC. – at Brooklyn, NY
