The Dean’s Perspective<br />
n the fall of 2009, I became interim dean and I accepted the position for several reasons, but one in<br />
particular; the Leeds School was a year into implementing a five-year strategic plan and I wanted to ensure that<br />
we would not lose momentum for this effort.<br />
Why is this strategic plan important? The current economy presents many challenges for us all and this is also<br />
true for higher education. It is increasingly important for the Leeds School to develop and implement a plan that<br />
guarantees we will continue to provide quality and affordable education now and in the future. At the same<br />
time, we want to impact the drivers of success for the Leeds School through efforts to:<br />
· Advance innovation and responsible<br />
business practices through excellence<br />
in research and research-based<br />
teaching.<br />
· Enhance the educational experience<br />
