Swasdee kaa!
I'd like to share an article I read entitled, Insights on Leading for the “Future of Work” by Christine Schaefer, February 6, 2020, who talked with Cheryl Cran, a successful business entrepreneur and author.
-- I like what Cheryl Cran sums up the focus of her work as in a simple sentence: “Helping companies and leaders be ‘future-ready’ now!”
Have our universities seriously helped our students be future-ready NOW?
1. Attracting and keeping top talent.
She noted that “millennials typically do not stay with an organization more than three years, and many leave without giving much notice.”
2. Being able to upgrade technology quickly enough, moving from their legacy systems to full digital transformation
Cran has “a natural aptitude for leadership and seeing the big picture.”, and these two traits have helped her clients to have greater success with the feeling of excitement.
Do our leaders have the ability to see the big picture.....one similar picture to move ahead and how excited are we to help our students to succeed?
3. Her passion is in finding future-focused solutions by building high-performing organizations for long-term success.

Does our leadership grow out of the real needs of our universities and are we patient enough to think and act more for the long-term success too, not just 'flavor of the day/week?' or 'Quick wins only'?
4. “Regardless of title, everyone is a leader in the future of work.”
Personally, I think it isn't easy in our Thai culture of seniority and authority but I've seen some seniors who have empowered their juniors much further which is really encouraging.
What could be the best for us to promote leadership in our people from faculty and staff to our students and communities?
5. For the future of change, Cran said we need to become more adaptable and agile. We need to realize as well that the future is about collaboration, and we must all be shifting from a ‘me’ to a ‘we’ approach.

The term, 'collaboration' comes up again and again. I hope our universities look beyond their walls to join hands with others in and out of the region to become real global citizens in our internationalized globe which is in need of synergy for a better world to live in.
