Leading Edge Thinking in Higher Education Webinars Series

Fostering Student Belonging from Deposit to Day One
Presenter: Ken Anselment, Vice President for Enrollment Management at RHB
Presented on January 24, 2024

What happens at your institution when an accepted student is ready to join your community and says “yes” to your offer of admission? Is your institution ready for them?  The journey to student success (and retention) doesn’t begin when students arrive at your institution—it starts when they submit their deposit to your institution. How can admissions offices seamlessly “hand-off” new students to their colleagues across their institutions’ multiple divisions and departments in a way that helps students feel welcomed and supported? In this 鈦燣eading Edge Thinking Webinar,鈦� our speaker, 鈦燢en Anslment,鈦� answered these questions and addressed how a student-first strategy can help ensure that every new student has an equitable chance for success at their institution.

From SMART Goals to Stellar Teams: The Power of Trust and Accountability
Presented on December 13, 2023 

In the ever-evolving landscape of higher education, the strength of a team is often determined by its foundation of trust and accountability. Dive deep into the "Accountability With Care" system, a transformative approach that seamlessly integrates Steven Covey's "Speed of Trust" and Patrick Lencioni's principles from "The Advantage." This webinar will illuminate the intricate dance between trust, transparency, and the art of setting SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Timebound) goals. Participants will gain insights into aligning their teams on shared objectives, fostering open communication, and tracking progress with precision. Whether you're leading a department, managing a project, or steering an institution, this session will equip you with the tools and strategies to cultivate a culture of trust and accountability, ensuring your teams not only meet but exceed their potential.

Student Retention: The Campus-Wide Approach with Time Culver
Presented on June 13, 2023
With new student enrollment pressures on the rise, many college leaders are now looking at student retention as a critical means to ensure institutional health and viability, not to mention student success. Along with data-informed planning comes the need to build cross-campus partnerships with faculty, staff, students, and a wide span of college departments. Effective advising, the use of key technology tools to understand, monitor, and communicate with students, tailored support services, and adjusting retention strategies based on inputs must all come into play. Participants heard from nationally renowned enrollment expert Dr. Tim Culver about the latest best practices for building a strong retention effort. Webinar participants had the opportunity to engage in discussion and Q&A to share their own experiences and ask questions about how to adjust, adapt, and apply cutting-edge strategies to their own institutions.

STEEP Futures for Higher Education with David J. Staley
The challenges facing higher education are enormous. Some are known to us while others are not. For example, most higher ed leaders did not have the emergence of a global pandemic on their list of concerns even five years ago. And yet, a handful of futurists like 鈦燚avid J. Staley鈦� did raise the possibility of a pandemic as something that higher education should be preparing for. What other significant trends are likely to impact higher education and our own college and university campuses most immediately in the days ahead?

Relationship Building and Intersection of Enrollment, Marketing, and Technology
To achieve your goals—to make your higher education institution sustainable even through calamities—you need to offer relevance in order to build relationships with people who will generate revenue for you. Your livelihood as an institution depends on your meaningful exchanges with a wide array of audiences—and individual constituents—every day. These exchanges are your tools to build relationships that, in turn, build sufficient trust that leads to transactions that build revenue. This session will address how enrollment, marketing, and technology can come together for your institution to most effectively build these critical relationships. Join panelists Ken Anselment, Erin Gore, Alex Williams, and Rob Zinkan as they share their expertise in this webinar.

The 3 Great R's: Resignation, Retention, & Reorganization, Opportunities for Transformational Leaders
We’ve heard about the Great Resignation, but have we spent enough time and focused enough attention and strategy on the Great Retention and Reorganization? For transformational leaders in the higher education landscape the great resignation affords institutions with something that they have traditionally lacked, namely, churn. While too much churn, or turnover, may be a cause of concern, transformational leaders can position their organization to be prepared for churn, by accepting resignations, reorganizing for a student-centered approach to business, and developing a retention strategy. This webinar will provide participants with insight into the three Great R’s and the strategy needed to leverage them within their organization.
