WEBINAR: Leading from the Middle during Turbulent Times: What You Need to Know about Legal Issues and Effective Communications
Recorded October 16, 2024
Campus leaders, including senior academic officers, chief student affairs officers, and others play key roles in handling delicate, complex, or divisive issues on campus. While the presidents are public facing and responsible for interacting with their boards, legislators, the public, etc. during a crisis, they collaborate and rely on their senior teams to ensure appropriate and orderly responses to crises and difficult situations. This webinar aims to equip senior campus leaders with resources and useful information so they can serve as the nexus to students, staff, faculty, and the community and promote effective communication. These leaders will share their thoughts and advice on recent and future campus unrest and protests with webinar attendees. The webinar will include:
- Developing crisis communications and proactive plans intended for use by leaders from across the campus (Collaboration)
- Understanding how free speech and academic freedom are operationalized at colleges and universities (Legal Issues)
- Connecting with campus and external community members in tough conversations (Communication)
This webinar required paid registration. If you would like to access or purchase the recording, please contact otufo@wiche.edu.
