Case Study:
Optimizing for Surpluses: How Indian Creek School Engineered a Financial Turnaround
An interview with:
Booth Kyle
Head of School
Indian Creek School School
The Story of a Financial Turnaround
Imagine starting as a new head with a mandate to re-engineer the school’s financial model. Then, add a global pandemic to the mix just seven months after starting, and threading the needle becomes WAY harder.
That’s what Booth Kyle faced when he assumed the headship at Indian Creek School.
In this case study, learn how Booth and his team navigated the challenge, achieving the board’s mandate to limit losses in year one and then earning surpluses in each subsequent year by activating untapped opportunities already on campus.
Indian Creek School isn’t just a story of financial accomplishment but more about creating a culture of success and empowerment, where encouragement to think about things in new and different ways is the norm, not the exception.
