Supporting institutions large and small.

We work with organizations across the education field, from schools to colleges and universities to the associations that serve them.

Our Practice Sectors

Higher Education | Independent Education | International Education


Independent Education

Triangle Associates works with a cross-section of schools, ranging from elementary to high school to through-train schools. We work with secular and religiously affiliated schools, including Catholic, Jewish, Quaker, and Episcopal institutions. We work with single-gender schools of all grade levels. We work with small schools of under 200 students to schools as large as 6,000 students.  

Our pleasure is getting to know each school well and finding its uniqueness. Our goal, no matter the scope of our work, is to partner collaboratively with our client and to leave them with new ways of thinking, a new direction to take, or a new approach to a problem to solve.


International Education

Triangle Associates’ work in the international arena spans every inhabited continent on the globe. We understand the myriad factors that impact international schools — their enrollment, governance, ever-changing competitive marketplaces, and shifting expatriate and local demography. 

Because all of our work is bespoke, each project we accept is designed specifically for the school, its location, and its challenges and the strengths. Whether it is navigating multiple-tier boards, rewriting governing board documents, partnering to work on strategy, or engaging the community in enrollment studies, Triangle Associates is experienced in navigating different cultures, languages, and contexts.


Higher Education

College and university leaders face very daunting jobs today. The entire higher education arena has witnessed significant changes and turmoil in the past decade, feeling the impact of an array of external pressures and shifting stakeholder expectations. Plus, increased competition among public institutions and for-profit institutions has left many university leaders feeling confused and adrift. This comes at a time when funding for public institutions has been cut and parents and students experience sticker-shock when confronted with university tuition. 

Triangle Associates can provide expertise to address the headaches that college and university administrators face. Our expert team offers tools to assist with strategic planning, academic program reviews, and academic and curriculum audits. We can also help you develop a healthy working relationship with both your faculty governing body and your governing board. University leaders trust us to provide evidence-based, data-driven independent advice and solutions.

Triangle Associates also provides leadership development for department chairs, deans, and other leaders, as well as executive coaching for senior leaders.  A variety of professional development programs are available, which can be tailored to meet your institution’s specific needs. 

We bring a fresh set of eyes to perplexing problems, combined with our cumulative decades experience of navigating the academy.
