Ep. 4: How a School Attracted ‘Ambitious Builders’

How a School Attracted ‘Ambitious Builders’

Or listen on:

About the Episode

When Suri Duitch arrived at Tulane University to take over as the dean of the School of Continuing Studies, she saw a need to rebrand. Renaming her unit the School of Professional Advancement (SoPA), Suri led an involved process that included collecting internal data, giving her the good, the bad and the ugly about the school. On this episode, we learn that the rebranding process was about more than changing SoPA’s name and look. It was about changing the culture. Suri shares how SoPA attracted “ambitious builders,” the change she saw in SoPA’s job applicants, and how SoPA gained a reputation within Tulane as an “excellent place to work.”
