In this episode of TRANSFORMED, we break the mold and welcome two esteemed guests from Butler University: Dr. Brooke Barnett, Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs, and Melissa Beckwith, Vice President and Chief Strategy Officer.
The discussion revolves around the concept of Dual Transformation and how Butler University is using that concept to not only maximize resilience today but also build the institution’s growth engine for tomorrow. Our guests delve into the creation of Butler Ventures, a multi-faceted initiative aimed at driving innovation and change at Butler. The conversation includes key challenges faced during this transformative journey, including the need for system upgrades and effective change management. They even touch on surprise challenges, including having too many good ideas to explore!
