I Wanna Work There!

Micromanagement does no favors to employer branding. However, faculty and staff may be willing to be the brand ambassadors of their campuses if their leaders knew how to…dance? There is a practice called followership which is the set of employee behaviors that influence how leaders lead. So, what happens when leaders micromanage? 

Sharna Fabiano, a certified leadership coach, uses her experience as an internationally recognized tango artist to help leaders understand how to work productively with their people. As the chair of the International Leadership Association’s Followership Member Community, Sharna helps us understand what followership is, why micromanagement is received so negatively by employees, and how leaders can invite their employees to “the dance floor” to foster more collaborative and productive work environments.

Colleges and universities are finding out, the hard way, why they can no longer “post and pray,” that is post job openings and pray that qualified candidates will fill the applicant tracking systems. On this episode, we went straight to a major source to find out what kind of traction higher education job postings are getting. Kevin Varner of HigherEdJobs joined “I Wanna Work There!” to discuss the increase that the website has seen in postings from campuses across the country, how site traffic has changed, and what institutions should do to attract the candidates that they want.

Employee engagement does not happen without effective leadership. Effective leadership, however, doesn’t always come from those with executive authority–the folks with the titles. Without question, great leadership can come from faculty and staff who own their expertise and authority and who have moved the needle on their respective campuses. This episode explores the critical role that leadership development plays in employee engagement through the eyes of Vicki Baker, an economics and management professor who wrote an Inside Higher Ed op-ed called “A Title Does Not a Leader Make.”

They say that the only thing that is constant is change. How does change affect the employees at an institution, especially when the change is at the top? Higher education, an industry that once upon a time saw presidents and chancellors lead institutions for decades in some cases, is now seeing leadership changes at the top nearly every six years. How does that affect faculty and staff? Robin M.L. Johnson, who is an expert in change management, joined “I Wanna Work There!” to discuss how institutional leaders, faculty and staff can manage major change at their respective institutions by keeping emotional intelligence at the center of the discussion.

When Suri Duitch arrived at Tulane University to take over as the dean of the School of Continuing Studies, she saw a need to rebrand. Renaming her unit the School of Professional Advancement (SoPA), Suri led an involved process that included collecting internal data, giving her the good, the bad and the ugly about the school. On this episode, we learn that the rebranding process was about more than changing SoPA’s name and look. It was about changing the culture. Suri shares how SoPA attracted “ambitious builders,” the change she saw in SoPA’s job applicants, and how SoPA gained a reputation within Tulane as an “excellent place to work.”

Campus work culture matters. While a college campus can be a place that’s full of life and offers many employees such great things as shared governance, it can also mentally and physically wear its employees down, a serious threat to the employer brand. Kevin McClure has been vocal about the work culture of higher education and offers thoughts about why and how it needs to change.
