On today’s episode, we talk about leaders who have made a difference for us in higher education. We talk about shared vision, helping people buy into shared goals, and how leaders personally invest themselves in an institution's success. Setting a vision and helping people understand that it is possible. Using your institution’s unique assets to help amplify this vision. Focusing on people, so that the vision is shared across your institution. And walking the walk to put yourself personally involved in the activity that will cause change. These are all important aspects of leadership in higher education. We hope you’ve enjoyed our stories. We’d love to hear yours.
