What happens when a new department chair or faculty partner has been named? This change in leadership and dynamics can be daunting BUT it’s an opportunity! In this session participants will hear how one DO and Department Chair team built a trusting relationship and brought a fresh new perspective which revitalized fundraising for the ECE Department in the Herbert Wertheim College of Engineering at the University of Florida. The presentation will be a case study around three key themes: Building Trust, Updating Priorities and Celebrating Successes.
