Expand your leadership and innovative thinking skills alongside other Provosts and Chief Academic Officers.
Overview
In today’s rapidly changing world, innovation has become a critical driver of success for individual leaders and their organizations. However, fostering a culture of innovation is not easy—especially in academia, where traditions and hierarchy often prevail.
This unique event aims to bring Provosts together to connect with peers, develop their own leadership, and learn proven strategies for fostering an innovative mindset and culture at their institutions. Participants will learn about key elements of an innovative culture such as openness, experimentation, collaboration, and risk-taking, and hear translatable examples of how other institutions have successfully cultivated them.
This summit is designed to be interactive and engaging, with plenty of opportunities for discussion, reflection, and practical exercises. You’ll leave with an expanded network of other Provosts across the nation who are equally invested in thinking outside the box to move their institutions forward.
To preserve an intimate and productive experience, this conference is capped at 30 attendees.

This summit has been specifically designed for Provosts and other Chief Academic Officers. If you are seeking an opportunity to step away from day-to-day managerial tasks, to think “bigger picture” about innovation and growth for your institution, and to develop your own leadership, this conference is for you.
