In this episode, we dive into higher education in the United States. Together with Lori, we explore the major challenges that are currently facing leaders in the sector, falling enrolment figures, a lack of student engagement, an increase in mental health incidents and the impact of AI. During this high energy conversation Lori shares with us how different institutions are responding to these issues and why she is so passionate about the work she is doing in this space.
KEY TAKEAWAY
“What we're hearing over and over again, is the importance of communication and interaction with the students and communication with their families. For me, the people I remember from college, the leaders that I remember, are the ones who engaged with us. The President is the one who sets that tone and what we're hearing from them is that they really are trying to make sure communications are better and students feel comfortable and welcome and part of the community.”
