The Parable of Destruction & Reconstruction - Cultivating Bold Collaboration

Virtual Event Information:

Please join keynote speaker, Howard Teibel, for this exciting virtual event held exclusively for members of CICV, CICU, AICUM, AICUP, and AICUO.

The Rock, Peter Blume’s oil painting from 1948, made after the bombing of London, shows the tension between destruction and rebuilding. In the midst of crisis, the old structures must come down. Then, we must build anew.

Higher Education is undergoing a similar struggle. Old ways are crumbling because they do not work anymore. The value proposition to students is in question. Costs are spiraling out of control. Student’s needs are changing. It is clear, that we are going to have to dismantle many of the old structures and build anew.

As leaders of your institution, you will be instrumental in creating this new vision. You will need to bring together a wide array of colleagues – from innovators to reactionaries and define this vision. There will be obstacles that will need your resolve and empathy.

Are you committed to a new vision or complacent with how things have always been done?

In this Session, Howard will Focus on:

  • Strategies to strengthen your position as a strategic leader

  • Cultivating a vivid vision that inspires others

  • Explore the speech act of Declarations to mobilize others and accelerate your vision for change
