Strategic Planning and Management for Higher Ed Institutions: How to Create, Implement, and Sustain Growth in Today’s New Normal
We live in a new normal, where the pool of “traditional” students is decreasing as are enrollments; institutions are struggling to meet expenses, discounting is the norm, tuition assistance/grants are decreasing, and deferred maintenance is eating budges alive; and accountability is a “bad” word.
Yet, most institutions continue to plan in the same ways they always have (if they do at all), and they are struggling to make ends meet.
Please join Dr. Drumm McNaughton, a strategy and planning expert who has added over $500 million to organizations’ bottom lines, for a webinar on how education institutions can be more proactive in addressing their challenges through implementing new ways of planning and change. Attendees will learn how to:
– Build a strategic plan
A strong, strategic plan, is a living, breathing roadmap for your institution, not a static document that sits on the president’s shelves gathering dust.
– Create change management structures
You’ll learn to create a change management structure that drives implementation and provides the mechanisms for updating the plan as your operating environment changes (which it always does).
– Create a shared vision for implementation that mitigates resistance to change
– Build a strong leadership team
After watching the Strategic Planning and Management for Higher Ed Institutions Webinar, you will be empowered to build a strong leadership team that can implement and make change stick, as it is in the execution that makes the difference for success or failure.
