New York City Innovators Network
About this Network:
Participants of the New York City Innovators’ Network will grapple with setting new visions, building teams, getting buy-in, and other key concepts and themes that can help direct programs towards an innovative future. As we learn from each other, participants will deepen their relationships among colleagues, share highlights of their work, raise issues of concern, and collaboratively create solutions.
The NYC Innovators’ Network will join similar NY area networks for two of the six meetings this year. This will provide us with the opportunity to broaden the conversation and learn with and from one another.
Additional Information:
- This network is open to new members but requires an initial conversation with the facilitator.
- This network is designed for congregational directors of education.
- This network will meet some in person and some virtually in 2022-23.
