Very often, a leader will have an idea or vision that is in harmony with the institution’s history, values, strengths and opportunities. If realized, the new program or project could bring unparalleled distinction and competitive advantage to the institution. However, there are vital questions:
| • |
“Where do I begin?” |
| • |
“What are the risks?” |
| • |
“Does the campus have the necessary expertise?” |
| • |
“How can it be funded?” |
Helping leaders carry vision to reality is a STRATUS specialty. Through Strategic Research and Opportunity Assessment, we identify the following:
| • |
Institutional Strengths: Internal drivers that can help leverage a new program or project |
| • |
