Dear
colleagues,
I hope this
message finds you well. I’m writing to you today to provide an
update on the search for AACSB’s new President and CEO.
The CEO
Selection Committee continues to move ahead on our search. A full
page ad will appear in the next publication of
BizEd, scheduled for mailing on April 29th. In response
to our constituent’s suggestions, additional ads will follow in
The Economist Magazine,
The Chronicle of Higher Education, and in the online
editions of the
Wall Street Journal and the
Financial Times. Ads will also be placed in various
global publications, in order to further target our international
audience.
The
finalized position description can be viewed on the AACSB website at
www.aacsb.edu/careers/ceo. Our search firm has begun building a
candidate pool, and will begin direct outreach to potential
candidates immediately. Given the attractiveness of the AACSB
opportunity, we are confident the pool will include strong leaders
from various backgrounds, including international experience.
Periodically, the committee will provide updates on our progress. In
the meantime, we encourage you to send your suggestions and
nominations of potential candidates to our search consultants, Kim
Morrisson and Betty Hasler, via
AACSB_CEO@divsearch.com.
In addition,
don't miss the upcoming broadcast of AACSB's eNEWSLINE Live,
focusing on the Critical Success Factors for Leadership in Global
Management Education and the Search for AACSB’s Next CEO. Additional
details about the search will be provided there. Register
for the May 19 broadcast.
Thank you,
