Jeremiah 17:7 says, “But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in Him.”
In the fast-paced world that college presidents must navigate, it’s hard to be everywhere at once.
We can’t predict the future. Ditching long-range planning and trusting in God’s present plan allows for an opportunity mindset.
Taking time to rest allows for intentionality in showing up where it matters most to your University.
Kicking off our conversation is Roger Parrott, the President of Belhaven University. With over 20 years of presidential experience, Roger wasn’t afraid to kick long-range planning out the door. And now, he wants to help others do the same.
In this episode, we dive into the keys to a successful university presidency.
Join us as we discuss:
[4:32] The current state of higher ed turbulence
[16:00] Why you should abandon long-range strategic planning
[21:39] Taking the critic’s perspective
