Upon arrival, the Dean will listen to and learn from key stakeholders, including faculty, staff, students, alumni, and university leaders, to identify and establish a clear vision for the College. The Dean will coalesce a well-defined set of goals and strategy for moving the College forward, recognizing the environment in which the university as a whole is operating. To do so, the Dean will bring an understanding of the landscape of higher education, business education, and the role of rankings on the national landscape, while also attending to the unique mission ecosystem of the College and of CSUF. The success of the College's vision will rely on the Dean's ability to unite diverse stakeholders to ensure that all groups are excited about and engaged by the collective vision and their role in its execution. Strengthen and grow external relationships The next Dean will be the ultimate ambassador for the College of Business and Economics and will advocate boldly for resources.

In addition to regular sustained advancement efforts for the College, the Dean will play a role in ongoing fundraising efforts for the first University comprehensive campaign in 60 years, alongside decanal and university colleagues. Finally, the Dean will be a partner within the CSU system, building networks that make the most of California's position as the fifth-largest economy in the world and the CSU as a driver of that economy through education of the workforce of the present and the future.

The Dean will be an accomplished manager - aware of how to lead leaders and not micromanage - and will oversee a team and the daily operations of a large, complex, unionized organization. The Dean will prioritize management and leadership needs to identify highest priority activities, opportunities for delegation, and the most effective and efficient operationalization for the College. In addition, the Dean will support the professional development and satisfaction of College staff and faculty. A critical part of this work will be attracting and retaining high quality faculty, both full- and part-time, listening well, engaging in collegial and shared decision-making, and ensuring faculty success in teaching and research.

The Dean will bring understanding of high-impact teaching practices, for this pandemic disruption and even beyond, and the shift that must happen to remain cutting edge and competitive in providing top tier education to students, while continuing to engage faculty in their educational efforts. Additionally, in a rapidly changing marketplace, the Dean must work closely with faculty and other stakeholders to ensure that the current curriculum is reflective of a dynamic and fast-paced global landscape. Serve as a collaborative, engaged, and inclusive campus leader The Dean will set the cultural tone of the College, including attending to student needs; supporting diversity, equity, and inclusion; and ensuring the College is a valued partner across the university, helping the College become a leader among all colleges within CSUF.

The opportunity to have an impact on student lives, professional development, and careers is unprecedented, and this Dean will embrace a student-centered ethos. In addition, the Dean will seek to understand the current climate of diversity and inclusion in the College, including the strides already made and areas still in need of improvement to advance this critical strategic priority. Finally, recognizing the breadth of CSUF, the Dean will seek opportunities for collaboration across the university, seeking synergies and bridging the work of the College to the community as an entity.
