Supporting Your School with Servant Leadership

Higher Ed Conversations

As higher education continues to evolve and expand, the presidency of its institutions has become an ever-increasing, ever-taxing role. It's this issue that this month's guest, Jeff Julian, current Chief of Staff at Harper College and President of the National Council for Marketing & Public Relations, shares his insights on this role. With an extensive résumé of various marketing positions such as Communications, Public Awareness, and Public Relations, Jeff discusses the catch-all yet crucial function of his role as Chief of Staff and that while delegation may vary between institutions, its core embodies servant leadership. He frequently works as the right man for the college president and offers a second, unbiased viewpoint on matters and decisions. Jeff additionally touches upon the value of volunteering and involvement, as this is how leadership is truly built; these skills, as he's learned from his time in the NCMPR and the Aspen Rising Presidents Fellowship, come from experience, not innateness.
