    Graduating Higher Education into the Digital Era: The Importance of People Readiness

    Throughout my years working in higher education, I have been fortunate to be a part of several graduation ceremonies. I love the celebration, joy, and especially hearing the journeys that students have experienced in achieving this milestone. Stories that are filled with unique and transformational experiences, with challenges and obstacles overcome, making plans, and then rewriting those plans, often several times over. In short, they are stories of triumph.

    Navigating the Change Current - The People Side of Transformation

    In 1964, 60 years ago, Gilligan’s Island premiered on television. It told a tale of a fateful three-hour boat tour that did not go as planned, despite having an experienced skipper, a first mate, a professor, a millionaire, as well as other passengers with unique talents. It was not until the shipwrecked passengers were able to grab the attention of the Coast Guard that they were rescued. The sitcom gave us funny moments and still serves as a reminder of the importance of planning, leadership, collaboration, innovation, and using all the tools necessary to successfully navigate the (ocean) current.

    'Tis the Season and the Gift of Change

    ’Tis the season!  

    For many of us, the holidays means making a list and checking it twice. As I sat down to create my gift list — the ones I want to give and the ones I’d love to receive— it made me think about the work I do and why I believe deeply in the power of change and the many gifts change can bring to an individual or organization.
