My response was quick and direct, ask your mother I said and quickly went back to sleep. In the past couple of days I have been thinking about my daughter's question in light of my role as the Dean of the School of Business and Technology, I have been thinking about the importance of dreaming and the value of dream makers in an institution such as this. Dreaming is a visionary creation of our imagination, a strongly desired goal. A dreamer is a person who has ideas and conceives projects and possibilities.
Dream makers are the catalyst who have the ability to turn ideas into reality.
My goal for the School of Business is to ensure that we involve our Webster Worldwide constituency in dreaming about the possibilities and opportunities for the School of Business and Technology. The real challenge is to involve our faculty, to engage our students and alumni, to seek support from the administration and the business community and most importantly, to involve our board of trustees to play leading roles as dream makers. To pursue such new initiatives as an e-commerce graduate degree program in collaboration with the School of Communication and to embrace and lead in the development of electronic curriculum and its delivery. Strengthen our business curriculum. Enhance the academic brand and scope of the Business School by differentiating our business academy from the rest of the pack and the Webster wannabe's.
