EACUBO General Session: The CBO-CAO Partnership - Building a Culture of Shared Commitment

  • New York Marriott Marquis (map)

Session Description

The biggest challenge facing leaders is the careful balance of running the college or university as a business while ensuring it lives its mission. This tension is historical and resides with the Chief Business Officer and Chief Academic Officer or Provost.

Whether it’s program review, budget processes, or learning modalities, building a healthy culture between the academy and business office is critical to transforming how work gets done in service of teaching, research, and student outcomes. 

At the heart of building this healthy culture is learning the language of humility and care while extending ourselves beyond our sphere of control.  Great leadership involves letting go of ego and power and focusing on what’s good for the whole.

In this general session, Howard Teibel, President of Teibel Education Consulting, will lead a conversation that sets the context for this necessary shift. 

This session is part of the EACUBO 2022 Annual Meeting.
