Introduction
Many colleges and universities continue to experience high turnover, prolonged vacancies, and questions about how to engage employees. Drawing on his in-progress book, Dr. Kevin McClure explores the roots of higher education’s workplace problems, drawing on organizational theories and research on burnout, disengagement, and demoralization.
The presentation includes multiple approaches leaders of institutions can pursue to better support the wellbeing of staff and faculty through organization level changes to structures and cultures.
