Academic Leadership During Crisis: Lessons Learned by Academic Leaders During COVID-19
Keywords: Academic leadership, COVID-19, Leadership in Crisis
Abstract: This panel discussion of deans and department chairs/heads brings together academic leaders from a range of institutions to discuss academic leadership in the COVID-19 era - both its challenges and opportunities. Despite the significant troubles brought by the pandemic, how has it prompted growth and opportunity that can ultimately make us more resilient? We consider lessons learned during this crisis and how new skills developed can be used in colleges of business and in departments both in times of crisis and calm. Time is included for participants to share questions and best practices from their institutions.
