- actively promoting a culture of organisational learning and reflection
- promoting equality and diversity by creating a larger pool from which future leaders, governors and managers within higher education can be drawn
- enhancing the esteem given to effective leaders, governors and managers, thus encouraging a larger and more diverse pool of candidates to seek these positions
- championing examples of excellent leadership, governance and management within UK higher education institutions, so that they are showcased worldwide as model organisations.

The things we value are:
- professionalism, transparency and accountability
