Being a law school dean requires managing the expectations of many different groups, including those beyond the core constituencies of students, faculty, and staff. Success often depends on how well you work with other key partners like the provost, other college deans, advisory boards, and alumni. This panel will discuss practical ways to strengthen those relationships, align priorities, and create successful collaborations. We'll discuss how to navigate university politics, make the most of advisory boards, and turn alumni into champions for you and your school. Expect real-world examples of successes and failures, candid advice, and (hopefully) ideas you can put to work right away.
