When alignment is weak, she said, strategic plans often sit on the shelf.<\/p>\n<p>The result can be a system that underperforms despite strong individual efforts. Leadership, she noted, must regularly navigate tensions between aligning the 10 campuses while still allowing for individual campus missions to be pursued.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;We want an aligned system where we\u2019re all moving in the same direction, but there are differentiated missions on each campus and specific priorities on each campus,&rdquo; Hensel said. &ldquo;We, as a group of 10 [campuses], have agreed on the major objectives that have let us have significant impact over time.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>To address those issues, the university is implementing a coordinated process centered on key areas:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Strategic action plans: annual plans tied directly to system and campus priorities, with defined outcomes, teams and resources.<\/li>\n<li>Budget transparency: a clearer, multi-year budgeting process aligned with strategic goals rather than historical funding patterns.<\/li>\n<li>Incentives: performance-based funding and stipends to encourage innovation, collaboration and student success.<\/li>\n<li>Accountability: a standardized set of performance metrics and regular campus reviews to track progress and inform leadership evaluations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The system also plans to expand leadership evaluations for officers, chancellors and administrators, including potential 360-degree reviews, and increase transparency through regular performance reporting.<\/p>\n<h2>Continuous improvement<\/h2>\n<p>Hensel concluded by emphasizing that alignment is not a one-time effort but an ongoing cycle of planning, measurement and adjustment.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;In order to move from a very decentralized approach to strategy across the 10 [campuses]; by setting alignment as a goal up front, it really enables the entire strategic plan to be executed,&rdquo; she said.<\/p>\n<p>The goal, she noted, is a more cohesive system that better serves students and the state.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The strategy aims to create a more cohesive and effective university that better serves students and the
