138: Responding to External Trends with David Woodgate, CEO, ISBA



In this episode David Woodgate, an industry expert and CEO of ISBA (Independent Schools’ Bursars Association), joins me to give unique perspectives on how the independent school sector is faring.


External factors such as inflation, VAT threats, staff recruitment, AI and climate change are among the trends that school leaders are focusing on at the moment.


David offers advice on becoming more effective at responding to these external trends, including early identification of trends and the importance of taking action.


Adopting an agile strategy is essential now we are mid-way through 2023 and looking forward to what could be an uncertain couple of years.


Thanks for listening.
