What's next with academic chairs?

Date: 2023-02-21

NOTE: this is a special hybrid Future Trends Forum.  That means two audiences join up, one virtual and one in person.
One side effect is that my laptop was locked in place and couldn't move to point its camera at one of our guests.  My apologies - you can hear her, at least!

How is the role of academic department chair changing?  What is the role of a chair amid institutional transformation?

This week the Future Trends Forum explores these questions by hosting an in-person and online session at the 40th annual Academic Chairpersons Conference.  Several guests, department chairs and related institutional leaders, will join us to share their research, experience, and reflections.

The Future Trends Forum is a weekly discussion event created and hosted by Bryan Alexander.  Since 2016 we have addressed the most powerful forces of change in academia. Each week, this video chat brings together practitioners in the field to share their most recent work and experience in education and technology.
