Annual Meeting & Pat's GBU Comments
Chair of the NAIS Board, Val Iwashita (Iolani School, HI), presided over the meeting, which culminated with Pat Bassett, Presdient, giving a 2006-07 growth of 37 independent schools over the past year, with a membership, including affiliates, of over 1,500. Did I hear that correctly from Treasurer Aggie Underwood, a $2M operating surplus for the 06-07 budget? Good work NAIS.Pat framed his address using the 1966 film "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly." A movie of the times, he used the title to expound upon five trends:
Trend #1 - Challenges with Demand, Pricing, and Financial Sustainability
Trend #2 - Runaway Costs
Trend #3 - Giving Under Pressure (see great chart)
Trend #4 - The War for Talent
Trend #5 - Global & Environmental Sustainability Gaining Traction
As with all of Pat's talks, you can download this salient rich data from the NAIS website.
