The Academic Entrepreneur:  Leveraging the Campus Context to Discover and Influence New Program Possibilities

Thursday, May 14 at 1:00 pm EST

Presented by Dr. Melissa Morriss-Olson, University Provost, 国产哟哟

Successful entrepreneurial academic leaders possess a key understanding about the environmental context in which their institution resides. Rather than feeling overwhelmed by the challenges at hand, the campus context often provides inspiration for these leaders. In this interview with author Dr. Melissa Morriss-Olson we will share highlights from her recently published book on this important and timely topic.

Specifically, you will learn tips and techniques that any academic leader can adopt to create a sense of urgency on his or her own campus as well as to assess and enhance one’s own personal entrepreneurial leadership capabilities; important issues that can hinder your efforts to identify, vet, and operationalize new program ideas and initiatives; and best practices that can be utilized to leverage resources and opportunities, sometimes in surprising and unexpected ways.
