EDUCAUSE President

In November of 2006, Brian Hawkins, EDUCAUSE President, announced his plans to retire from the presidency of EDUCAUSE at the end of the 2007•2008 academic year. At the 2007 EDUCAUSE Annual Conference, he was asked to share the important lessons he has learned in his nearly 40-year career in higher education regarding management, leadership, and professional life. In this 42-minute podcast of that address, entitled "Learning To Drive (and Other Lessons Learned Along the Way)", he discusses issues including personnel management, professional development, and how to map a course for good leadership and a successful career.

 

The EDUCAUSE Board of Directors has announced that Diana G. Oblinger, vice president of EDUCAUSE, will become president and CEO of the association effective January 1, 2008. Oblinger succeeds Brian L. Hawkins, who has led EDUCAUSE since it was formed in 1998. Read the press release for more details.

The search for President/CEO of EDUCAUSE is now officially open. The presidential search committee will accept nominations and applications through May 31, 2007. View the position description and instructions.
