Universities around the world face financial constraints that make it difficult to compete with the private sector when it comes to finding, nurturing and keeping the best people – be they researchers, teachers, department heads, administrators or executive leaders. Add to this the fact that university work is people-intensive, academics work long hours and often wear several hats – and the task of making your institution stand out among global competitors who are also courting top candidates is even more complex.
Our discussion includes advice on how to identify and attract top talent, best practice for staff development and retention, managing the promotion pipeline, and inclusive practices for recruitment and hiring, including crafting job listings.
Our panellists are:
- H. C. Man, chair professor in materials engineering and dean of the Faculty of Engineering at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University
- Inês Crisóstomo, mentoring programme coordinator in Gender Equality Office at the University of Luxembourg
- Helen Ashley, director of organisational development at the University of Manchester.
All our speakers are from Campus+ partner institutions. Campus+ is a unique opportunity to become a contributing partner to the resources, tools and advice published on Campus.
