Higher education leaders who want to increase inclusion while maintaining affordability at their campus can emulate the actions of the Illinois Institute of Technology. By following three core principles, Illinois Tech has ranked first in the state for people it has successfully moved from the bottom 20th percentile of household income to the upper 20th percentile. Illinois Tech is also one of just 88 institutions named an American Talent Initiative ‘High-Flier' by the Aspen Talent Institute and Bloomberg Philanthropies for ensuring college access and success. Moreover, Illinois Tech's employment rate is 92% six months after graduation, even when 37% of its students receive Pell Grants. In this episode of Changing Higher Ed® podcast, Dr. Drumm McNaughton speaks with President Raj Echambadi of the Illinois Institute of Technology about the four principles that have allowed Illinois Tech to experience so much success. They include boosting inclusion through experiential learning opportunities, providing more pathways for students, and embracing digital education. Podcast Highlights Illinois Tech pairs technology education with human-centered education by mandating experiential learning opportunities. These include not only students learning from faculty but also students learning from each other and faculty learning from students. Because of how the public perceives higher ed, institutions must provide different pathways for students to receive an education. This involves no longer thinking of students as a monolith that can benefit from a one-size-fits-all solution. Instead, institutions must think about individual student groups and look at their different needs and motivations to develop more effective value propositions. For example, after learning that students were concerned about affordability, Illinois Tech partnered with the local community college system, the City Colleges of Chicago, to create an innovative program. Students can now spend their first year at City Colleges to take post-secondary courses at community college prices while living on the Illinois Tech campus. They can also join student organizations and participate in activities at Illinois Tech. This not only addresses affordability but boosts a sense of belonging for students. For its student-centered approach, Illinois Tech has been asked to join REP4 Rapid Education Prototyping, which is an alliance of like-minded institutions that devise strategies by learners for learners. It is a bottom-up orientation, where the learners design and dictate the learning strategy. At the same time, it becomes the job of educational leaders to make sure that those strategies get implemented so their learners remain empowered. Illinois Tech embraces a hybrid model due to student demand and to increase accessibility for those who work full-time jobs, for example. Before joining Illinois Tech, Raj developed and launched the first scaled online MBA program in partnership with Coursera at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. That program happens to be the largest online program in the world. Ten percent of all online MBAs in the United States come from the university. Read the transcript → About Our Podcast Guest Raj Echambadi, the 10th president of Illinois Institute of Technology, is steering the institution towards preeminence by prioritizing economic mobility, accessible education, human-centered technologists, and purposeful citizenship. Collaborating with university leaders, he has launched the groundbreaking ELEVATE program, which offers experiential learning, personalized mentorship, and job readiness, resulting in remarkable enrollment growth and recognition as an ATI High-Flier institution by Bloomberg Philanthropies. Echambadi's previous role as dean of the D'Amore-McKim School of Business at Northeastern University and his involvement in pioneering online education further underscore his transformative vision.

At the age of 3, Ed Hajim is kidnapped by his father, driven cross-country, and told his mother is dead. He presses his face against the car window, watches the miles pass and wonders where life will take him. Where you'd least expect. In a memoir filled with human drama, wisdom and timeless life lessons, ON THE ROAD LESS TRAVELED: An Unlikely Journey from the Orphanage to the Boardroom (Skyhorse; March 2, 2021) tells the improbable story of how Hajim bounced from foster homes to orphanages, in a daily struggle to survive, to living the American dream as an accomplished Wall Street executive and model family man with great moral fiber and the means to give back to a world that seemed intent on rejecting him. It's a powerful story touched with family trauma, deprivation, and adversity balanced by a life of hard work and philanthropy. “While his childhood travails of loneliness, isolation, and poverty would have broken most people, Ed channeled his survival instincts and conquered his inner demons to become a loving family man and a beloved leader of people,” says Raj Echambadi, Dunton family dean at D'Amore-McKim School of Business, Northeastern University. Hajim served as a senior executive at such firms as E.F. Hutton, Lehman Brothers, Furman Selz and other financial institutions, regularly transforming fledgling operations into profitable growth machines. His life accomplishments were rightfully acknowledged in 2015 with the Horatio Alger Award, given to Americans who exemplify the values of initiative, leadership, and commitment to excellence and who have succeeded despite personal adversity. On the Road Less Traveled is packed with anecdotes of how Hajim used his ingenuity to achieve his goals and also provides insight into what he learned from some of his life's defining moments: “My childhood disadvantages became advantages in later life.” “By living in 15 to 20 different locations, I learned how to adjust to different circumstances, became good at it, and almost looked forward to it; I was not afraid to change.” “Tough situations, hostile and abusive, taught me how to appreciate good times and handle difficult situations with less anxiety.” “My lack of a present family forced me to seek out external mentors and better understand the need for partners/people who cared.” “By being alone, I developed self reliance and was not afraid to be self-directed.” “Being very poor produced a drive for financial independence and appreciation for money.” “Not having control produced a strong drive to seek freedom as a goal.” “Later in life I realized that my childhood seemed to give me a foundation for recognizing the need for balance between self, family, work and community.” Throughout his career, Hajim was guided by his instincts to know when a situation had run its course. “Sometimes it's better to sever ties and leave on your own, even if the next step is unknown,” he writes. “That's often the road less traveled, but it's so worth the journey.” The “unknown” also played a major part in Ed's personal life, when a long-kept secret he couldn't possibly have imagined was revealed. Joel Seligman, president emeritus of the University of Rochester, says, “Ed Hajim's On the Road Less Traveled does full justice to a remarkable life lived by a remarkable man. You will learn much about why one man who began with nothing achieved so much and did so much for so many.” ED HAJIM, the son of a Syrian immigrant, is a seasoned Wall Street executive with more than 50 years of investment experience. He has held senior management positions with the Capital Group, E.F. Hutton, and Lehman Brothers before becoming chairman and CEO of Furman Selz. Hajim has been the co-chairman of ING Barings, Americas Region; chairman and CEO of ING Aeltus Group and ING Furman Selz Asset Management; and chairman and CEO of MLH Capital. He is now chairman of High Vista, a Boston-based money management company. In 2008, after 20 years as a trustee of the University of Rochester, Hajim began an eight-year tenure as chairman of the university's board. Upon assuming that office he gave the school $30 million—the largest single donation in its history—to support scholarships and endow the Edmund A. Hajim School of Engineering and Applied Sciences. Through the Hajim Family Foundation, he has made generous donations to organizations that promote education, health care, arts, culture, and conservation. In 2015, he received the Horatio Alger Award, given to Americans who exemplify the values of initiative, leadership, and commitment to excellence and who have succeeded despite personal adversities.

“Organizations that are successful globally, sometimes have to be culturally agile enough to recognize the cultural difference.” Paula Caligiuri With the increased globalization of markets, businesses are finding it necessary to develop the competencies that would enable them thrive in cross-cultural contexts. Our guest today, Paula Caligiuri, has specialized in the area of cultural agility and says it involves awareness and the ability to put into practice skills that enhance cultural adaptation. Paula Caligiuri is a D'Amore-McKim School of Business Distinguished Professor of International Business and Strategy at Northeastern University. Researching and consulting in the areas of global leadership, cultural agility development, and global mobility, Paula has authored or co-authored several articles and books – including her most recent, Build Your Cultural Agility. She was named a semi-finalist for the 2021 Forbes “50 over 50” for co-founding a public benefit corporation, Skiilify, to help foster cultural understanding. Skiilify offers a free tool (www.myGiide.com) to build awareness and develop cultural agility. Paula holds a Ph.D. from Penn State University in Industrial and Organizational Psychology. In today's episode, Paula shades light on cultural agility and why it is important for businesses that operate in a multicultural context to adapt to being culturally sensitive. Listen in! Contacts TASCAglobal.com myGiide.com. I studied abroad in Rome, Italy, in 1987 and unfortunately for me, the market crashed while I was in Italy. [3:30] I ended up doing my PhD in psychology which is around what makes people effective living and working internationally, and how they change from deep developmental cross cultural experiences. [4:21] I've just been blessed with a much wider audience now to talk about how we become effective living and working in different countries. [4:47] When humans are under any position of stress or any sense of anxiety, we tend to cling to what is familiar. [6:42] There is cultural agility which comes in two ways and that is first, awareness of proper etiquette norms and values and second, the competencies needed in order to be successful. [8:07] I always encourage people to certainly build that awareness not only of the superficial things, but of the much deeper values, and then also concurrently build those competencies. [9:26] We have to remember that culture is socialized, we're not we're not born with culture. [10:18] We all know that when we go into another organization, we have to realize that that organization has its own set of norms and values and behaviors. [10:47] With tech, what's happening is because we're doing it so quickly, and with such ease, we're forgetting that we need to attend to a lot of the cultural cues just like we would if we were in person. [12:00] This is kind of masking the need for cultural agility, because we're doing it at such a fast pace. [12:43] I've watched countless meetings where individuals from different cultures misinterpret their colleague's body language due to perceptual differences. [12:49] Organizations that are successful globally, sometimes have to be culturally agile enough to recognize the cultural difference. [16:00] Professionals know when to adapt, but they also know when to integrate to create something completely new that is unique. [16:41] Commercial break. [17:00] I wish companies would really spend more time thinking about building cultural agility as opposed to just offering this training because everyone else is doing it. [20:18] We build cultural agility by finding similarities with people who we don't know because we bond with people around similarities, and the only way we go there is through authentic conversations. [21:13] The last thing companies should be doing is setting up anything structurally that keeps people from having natural conversations. [21:30] My initial research was on what made people successful internationally and the product turned into consulting which later turned into keynoting. [22:23] We recently formed a company called Skiilify where we provide a tool which people can use to assess your own values and competencies and learn how to build them. [22:52] Humans form trust in different ways depending on how they've been socialized, but underlying it all is seeing someone as authentic, real and similar. [26:09] Having those conversations that enable us to get to similarities is the easiest way to build trust and skill that will never be run. 26:20] ………………………………………………… Thank you to our December sponsor!

At the age of 3, Ed Hajim is kidnapped by his father, driven cross-country, and told his mother is dead. He presses his face against the car window, watches the miles pass and wonders where life will take him. Where you'd least expect. In a memoir filled with human drama, wisdom and timeless life lessons, ON THE ROAD LESS TRAVELED: An Unlikely Journey from the Orphanage to the Boardroom (Skyhorse; March 2, 2021) tells the improbable story of how Hajim bounced from foster homes to orphanages, in a daily struggle to survive, to living the American dream as an accomplished Wall Street executive and model family man with great moral fiber and the means to give back to a world that seemed intent on rejecting him. It's a powerful story touched with family trauma, deprivation, and adversity balanced by a life of hard work and philanthropy. “While his childhood travails of loneliness, isolation, and poverty would have broken most people, Ed channeled his survival instincts and conquered his inner demons to become a loving family man and a beloved leader of people,” says Raj Echambadi, Dunton family dean at D'Amore-McKim School of Business, Northeastern University. Hajim served as a senior executive at such firms as E.F. Hutton, Lehman Brothers, Furman Selz and other financial institutions, regularly transforming fledgling operations into profitable growth machines. His life accomplishments were rightfully acknowledged in 2015 with the Horatio Alger Award, given to Americans who exemplify the values of initiative, leadership, and commitment to excellence and who have succeeded despite personal adversity. On the Road Less Traveled is packed with anecdotes of how Hajim used his ingenuity to achieve his goals and also provides insight into what he learned from some of his life's defining moments: “My childhood disadvantages became advantages in later life.” “By living in 15 to 20 different locations, I learned how to adjust to different circumstances, became good at it, and almost looked forward to it; I was not afraid to change.” “Tough situations, hostile and abusive, taught me how to appreciate good times and handle difficult situations with less anxiety.” “My lack of a present family forced me to seek out external mentors and better understand the need for partners/people who cared.” “By being alone, I developed self reliance and was not afraid to be self-directed.” “Being very poor produced a drive for financial independence and appreciation for money.” “Not having control produced a strong drive to seek freedom as a goal.” “Later in life I realized that my childhood seemed to give me a foundation for recognizing the need for balance between self, family, work and community.” Throughout his career, Hajim was guided by his instincts to know when a situation had run its course. “Sometimes it's better to sever ties and leave on your own, even if the next step is unknown,” he writes. “That's often the road less traveled, but it's so worth the journey.” The “unknown” also played a major part in Ed's personal life, when a long-kept secret he couldn't possibly have imagined was revealed. Joel Seligman, president emeritus of the University of Rochester, says, “Ed Hajim's On the Road Less Traveled does full justice to a remarkable life lived by a remarkable man. You will learn much about why one man who began with nothing achieved so much and did so much for so many.” ED HAJIM, the son of a Syrian immigrant, is a seasoned Wall Street executive with more than 50 years of investment experience. He has held senior management positions with the Capital Group, E.F. Hutton, and Lehman Brothers before becoming chairman and CEO of Furman Selz. Hajim has been the co-chairman of ING Barings, Americas Region; chairman and CEO of ING Aeltus Group and ING Furman Selz Asset Management; and chairman and CEO of MLH Capital. He is now chairman of High Vista, a Boston-based money management company. In 2008, after 20 years as a trustee of the University of Rochester, Hajim began an eight-year tenure as chairman of the university's board. Upon assuming that office he gave the school $30 million—the largest single donation in its history—to support scholarships and endow the Edmund A. Hajim School of Engineering and Applied Sciences. Through the Hajim Family Foundation, he has made generous donations to organizations that promote education, health care, arts, culture, and conservation. In 2015, he received the Horatio Alger Award, given to Americans who exemplify the values of initiative, leadership, and commitment to excellence and who have succeeded despite personal adversities.

Join Dr. Curtis Odom, business leader and Executive Professor of Management in the D'Amore-McKim School of Business at Northeastern University, as he shares his 20 years of professional insights, lessons learned, and personal experiences about how to be a successful business leader. What makes the writing of this book so beautifully ironic is that you will be reading the career learnings of someone who barely made it out of high school and yet found his personal definition of success as a business owner and full-time faculty member at a top business school in Boston. This book started with a student who gave Dr. Odom the greatest gift of his career: a transcript of his academic lectures taught over a fall semester in a college classroom that encapsulated an entire career's worth of experience. This engaged student distilled the insights from Dr. Curtis Odom lectures into simple, impactful statements that most influenced him as a student and now can be shared with the book's readers.

A graduate of Indiana University, Bloomington, Lisa received an M.B.A. from the D'Amore McKim School of Business at Northeastern University in Boston, Massachusetts. Top 4 Takeaways: Lisa's career started after she got her MBA. The MBA curriculum differed dramatically from undergrad. She went from learning about a topic to diving into the deep end of research and business practices. Hyper focused to teach critical thinking skills. For Lisa, an MBA was the key to moving into the career she wanted. Your career is a stack of building blocks. Each block represents a skill acquired or a project completed. Look at your role and ask yourself, which building blocks will I acquire from this position. Work on the blocks, name the blocks, and promote your blocks. A boss or leader can put you in the right role but no one can guide your career as much as you. On balancing family and career, Lisa took a break from the work force to focus on her family and successfully re entered the workforce at the same level. You can too. Don't focus on the gap. Focus on what you contributed in the past and what you can bring in the future. On how to level up, be true to yourself, be authentic, and take ownership and all you have done. Where do the dots of the best accomplishments of your career align? Hone in on those areas and take them to the next level. Connect with Lisa on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/faheylisa/
