Great Leaders Drive
Great Schools

The Bright initiative is a unique partnership between the Fisher College of Business and the College of Education and Human Ecology at The Ohio State University.
Our mission is to provide leaders in K-12 education with unparalleled training from a distinct perspective.
Our core leadership team is dedicated to preparing leaders to transform school building and school districts.
Bright grew out of breakthrough research which examined what separates high-performing, high-poverty schools from low-performing,
high-poverty schools. From there we have graduated two cohorts of exceptional leaders with more than half still in the field long after their 3-year commitment.
Now we prepare to launch our 3rd cohort of transformational leaders to improve outcomes for kids in Ohio.
