Following up on our conversation around reflections on NACUBO 2013, we're digging into issues facing the finance organization on today's show.

15: Building Your Vision 2020 Part 1 – with John Eldert and Howard Teibel
Academic planning often adopts the business approach to strategic planning. The results are predictable: clear, measurable outcomes; tight, pithy vision statement; focused strategy targeting a clear and "directable" organizational culture. But these assumptions don't fit the higher education planning environment, with many parallel lines of activity, complex vision, and an environment that is often far more self-directed. This week on the show, we bring you part one of our conversation with John Eldert, Vice President of Administration at Berklee College of Music as he joins Howard Teibel to discuss their work on adapting the business approach to strategic planning for higher education.
14: The Importance of Training as a Team
We underestimate what it means to collaborate. The result is often a catalog of missed opportunities for improving function across the organization, which comes at the expense of systems training and technology solutions for simple problems. This week, Howard Teibel joins Pete Wright with a few suggestions for team cross-training -- ensuring that teams are aligned across departments and functions, and that process, not just systems, are tested all along the line.
13: The 15-Minute Meeting
We’ve all been there -- the eternal ineffective meeting. The facilitator labors on and on, agenda lost long, long ago, with no end in sight. But it is possible to hold effective meetings; meetings with focus, attention, participation, and accountability -- and it all starts with a collective understanding of the rules of the field. In this episode, Howard Teibel and Pete Wright outline those rules and provide suggestions for all who are plagued with ineffective meeting-itis on how to spark the right team behaviors and get back on track.
12: How do you increase productivity without carrying a big stick?
It’s easy to say you want to cultivate an environment of collaboration and communication on a team. It’s another thing all together to actually achieve it. When you are faced with team behavior that’s in the dumps, how do you pull the right people together, inspire that spirit of innovation, and get people working together again without getting mired in politics and frustration?
11: We’re always selling
Walk into your next management meeting and tell your team that you think they need to learn to sell better, you're likely to feel a chill enter the room. Sales has a tough reputation inside organizations. And yet, so many core skills from the art of selling apply perfectly to the interactions we engage in day to day.
10: Strategies for Building an Effective Retreat
Holding a strong retreat takes planning and strategy to rally teams and build commitment. The best retreats offer a chance to capture institutional intelligence and align teams to strategic vision. The worst retreats are chaotic and unaligned, and can leave your team jaded and disorganized as a result.
