What makes for a great Professional Services leader?

You don't have to have come through a traditional educational route to be a great Professional Services leader in Higher Education.

However, you do need:

  • to keep yourself grounded
  • to know what the priority is
  • to know your values
  • to make agreements rather than holding on to expectations
  • to be decisive
  • to delegate well
  • to have quality accountability and feedback conversations
  • to deal with performance issues well
  • to have conviction in your communication
  • to cultivate psychological safety and belonging
  • to model trust
  • to lead upwards
  • to hold steady when things are hard.

Lead yourself well first and the rest will follow.
