…and Vice President for Academic Affairs. Our search committee has decided these are the qualities the person needs:
-
“Terminal” degree and record of achievement in teaching, research and service that merits appointment as a tenured professor [here];
-
Successful career path that demonstrates progressively responsible administrative leadership experience in a vibrant academic setting;
-
Collaborative, transparent, strategic management style marked by strong communication skills, a nimble and decisive approach to planning and problem solving with a demonstrated balanced, campus-wide perspective;
-
Reputation as an enthusiastic, effective advocate for faculty, staff and students and a gift for forging consensus with both internal and external constituencies and building community throughout the university and beyond;
-
Record of commitment to diversity and the ability to respond to the needs of a diverse student population, including first-generation students;
-
Fluency with emerging trends in technology in the management of data and the delivery of high-quality academic programs online and via other methods;
-
Ability to understand and successfully navigate complex budgetary issues as well as Louisiana’s funding formulas and multi-layered university governance structure.
Perhaps it is because we are not asking for a research degree that we are concerned the candidates may not be able to understand budgets, funding formulas, and governance.
Axé.
