KlingChat & KlingSalon: For Purposeful & Generative Conversation

KlingChats and KlingSalons are opportunities for small groups of educators to gather to think, share, and discuss key aspects of independent school education. Some sessions gather educators based on their role in schools and others center on a key questions, challenge or idea.

During 2025-2026, several of our KlingChats are part of the Leadership Insights series, an informal mentorship opportunity that connects established alumni leaders with current students and emerging leaders in the Klingenstein network.
