style=\"float:right;max-width:250px;\" />\n<p>The confidential brain trust for leaders at the forefront of institutional change.</p>\n<p>Senior leaders are called to lead with courage and integrity amid political scrutiny, institutional transformation, legal uncertainty, shifting public narratives, and increasing demands on both their leadership and their humanity. This work is increasingly isolating and crisis oriented, resulting in mental and emotional strain, stress-related illness, and burnout.</p>\n<p>Developed by the Center for Liberated Leadership (C4LL) in partnership with NADOHE, the LEAD Vanguard Coaching Circle creates a highly confidential coaching community where senior leaders can think strategically, wrestle honestly with difficult leadership questions, and learn alongside peers who understand the weight of executive responsibility.</p>\n<p>Grounded in C4LL’s Liberated Leadership Framework, this coaching circle explores leading for equity as a practice of aligning courage with strategy. Rather than framing courage and adaptation as opposing forces, participants will examine how leaders can remain deeply rooted in their values while making thoughtful strategic choices that advance institutional change, protect their communities, and sustain themselves for the long journey ahead. Through trauma-informed coaching, reflective dialogue, and collective wisdom, participants will cultivate the discernment, resilience, and clarity needed to lead with both courage and strategy.</p>\n<p><strong>Participants will engage in conversations about:</strong></p>\n<ul>\n<li>Aligning courage and strategy in politically complex environments</li>\n<li>Leading with integrity while navigating institutional risk</li>\n<li>Distinguishing strategic adaptation from values compromise</li>\n<li>Supporting teams through uncertainty, change, and loss</li>\n<li>Exercising executive influence with wisdom and purpose</li>\n<li>Releasing urgency and cultivating sustainable leadership practices</li>\n<li>Building courageous institutional cultures rooted in trust, accountability, and hope</li>\n</ul>\n<p><strong>Program Components</strong></p>\n<ul>\n<li>Six (6), 90-minute group coaching sessions</li>\n<li>One (1), 50-minute one-on-one executive coaching session</li>\n<li>Participant coaching materials and resources</li>\n<li>Summary report highlighting participant outcomes, themes, and recommendations</li>\n</ul>\n<p><br><hr style=\"clear: both;\"><br></p>\n<h2><strong>Dates/Times:</strong></h2>\n<img src=\"https://nadohe.memberclicks.net/assets/LEAD/CenterforLiberatedLeadership.png\" alt=\"\" style=\"float:right;width:180px;margin:20px\" />\n<p>Thursdays*: 3:00-4:30 PT/ 6:00-7:30 ET</p>\n<ul>\n<li>October 14, 2026</li>\n<li>October 28, 2026</li>\n<li>November 11, 2026</li>\n<li>November 24, 2026 *Note Tuesday Session</li>\n<li>December 9, 2026</li>\n<li>December 16, 2026</li>\n</ul>\n<br> \n<h3><strong>REGISTRATION</strong></h3>\n<p><strong>MEMBER REGISTRATION $2,500</strong></p>\n<p><strong>NON-MEMBER REGISTRATION  $2,800</strong></p>\n<p><br><center><a href=\"https://nadohe.memberclicks.net/lead-registration#!/\"> <img src=\"https://nadohe.memberclicks.net/assets/LEAD/LEAD-Buttons/Button_RegisterHere.png\" alt=\"\" style=\"margin:20px;width:30%;min-width:200px\"/> </a></p>\n<p><em>Non-members will be required to create a New User Account in order to register.</em></center></p>\n<p><br><hr style=\"clear: both;\"><br></p>\n<img src=\"https://nadohe.memberclicks.net/assets/LEAD/ChinyereOparah.png\" alt=\"\" style=\"float:left;max-width:30%;margin:20px\" />\n<p><strong>Chinyere Oparah, Ph.D., ACC</strong></p>\n<p>A seasoned leader and former provost, Chinyere has dedicated herself to developing and embodying a new way to lead that fosters joy, creativity, resilience and peak performance for leaders and the communities they serve.
