“The program covered a range of topics that were very relevant to my role as an admissions officer in an international school, and I particularly appreciated the strategies for creating compelling content and engaging with students and parents through social media. I feel much more equipped to showcase our school to prospective families and build relationships with them through various channels.”

Headmistress

St Mary’s School, Cambridge, UK

“Dr Stephen Holmes presented a hugely impressive data-driven workshop at the ICGS conference in Cleveland Ohio in June, attended by heads of school and marketing managers from girls’ schools from the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the UK. His messages were of absolute and vital relevance across these educational jurisdictions. Stephen’s years of professional and unique practice as regards placing reputation in a highly nuanced framework of marketing were generously shared in a compelling yet compressed delivery of radical marketing and reputational strategy. He rightly had many of queuing to engage him for further bespoke work in our schools.”

Principal

Tara Anglican School for Girls, Sydney, Australia

“I was really impressed with your approach for schools today in your presentation at the International Coalition of Girls’ School (ICGS) Conference in Cleveland, Ohio. The lens you are using to test strategic goals for managing the reputation of the school has real value for schools. At our School, we have worked hard on working out our “why” as a school and have a firm commitment to the vision for the school. Your work provides an approach to clarify how the goals and actions of the strategic plan can work towards the reputation it is seeking for the school. Brilliant.”
