Workforce of the Future

Update

  • The Workforce of the Future working group consists of three subgroups: Work/Life Balance; Digital/Global/Mobile; and Team-Based Workforce
  • Internal outreach focused on personal interviews with 50 staff members and an online survey completed by 887 Dartmouth staff.
  • Working group members also reached out to human reasources leaders in both the corporate and higher education realms.

Overall Approach

The senior executive strategic planning advisory group (SE-SPAC) will launch the administrative planning efforts by first focusing on the core aspects of our workforce – its success and evolution. The goal of this working group is to identify how to create and sustain a dynamic, effective, and mission-driven workforce that meets the College’s needs as a leading institution.

This working group will seek broad input from within and outside Dartmouth. They will examine trends, needs and opportunities that will be vital to the successful recruitment, retention, and training of our workforce in the future. Individual schools and departments will be asked by their deans and directors to engage in discussions focusing on departmental, divisional and school-specific strengths and approaches to complement the more general conversation.

Goals

  • To provide an aspirational vision for Dartmouth’s workforce of the future
  • To develop recommendations for Dartmouth’s strategic plan, informed by data-driven assessment and broad engagement with the community
