You’ll learn:
- Why strategic plans often play it safe, and how that could be hurting your institution
- How branding helps institutions tell their most up-to-date story
- How integrating branding and strategic planning delivers more meaningful engagement and reduces investment
- The main reasons why creating branding and strategic plans in isolation is detrimental to your success
- How to adapt your process to create shared wins for strategy & branding initiatives

Perhaps this is a familiar scenario. Picture a Wednesday afternoon in spring. Convocation and all its craziness is about a month away, students are in exams, and there’s an eerie lull in activity (by post secondary standards, anyway). You’ve just given yourself permission to daydream about dedicating a meaty chunk of time to a project when you hear it.
That chime. The chime of a calendar invitation.
