运营-创新

Our planning was oriented around the “Dual Operating System,” developed by Harvard University business professor and author, Dr. J.P. Kotter. Kotter’s model recognized the tendency of mature hierarchical organizations (like universities) to prioritize and resource operational improvements over transformational initiatives. 为了克服这一挑战, the dual operating system creates a guiding coalition of leaders to empower teams of networked volunteers with the time and resources they need to transform the organization. Using this “operate-innovate” approach enables the University to pursue operational goals (operate) while simultaneously pursuing transformative goals (innovate).

加快我们的战略

Design thinking workshops kickstarted our planning process resulting in 245 transformative ideas. These ideas were narrowed through a formalized pitch process, 迭代后, 并与全校分享，以供参考. 这产生了12项变革举措, which were externally validated through several third-party firms. 其中6项倡议进入了战略计划. We simultaneously developed several key operational initiatives that would help the university meet the needs and expectations of 21^st 世纪学习者. Together, these “operate-innovate” initiatives form the Lindenwood 2026 strategic plan.
