1 Development of the Strategic Vision and Where We Go From Here? Dan Dooley Vice President

2 On Monday I said I would Talk about the range of ideas presented at the conference Talk about next steps to engage all of the Division as well as our external stakeholders

3 ~600 people participating ~400 academics ~200 staff Lots of ideas, excitement Great Conversations

4 Heard some concerns… Dysfunctional organizational structure Communication has been lacking Understanding each person’s place in the organization and their role –We value creativity and flexibility in the organization but that brings uncertainty Reward system: how we’re evaluated and different expectations What the value of your input to this process will be…

5 Lots of great ideas Captured all of them Divided into 5 major kinds of themes –Organizational structure ideas –Partnership ideas –Marketing, branding ideas –Internal rewards, merits –Teams and collaborations

6 Organizational structure Support the county-based structure Create regional and county clusters Use the RECs as the focal point to increase kinds and numbers of academics Organize ANR around programmatic themes

7 Organizational structures Be flexible to retain community connections Eliminate Regional offices to improve ANR efficiency Get external help to design integrated, multi-disciplinary organizational structure to fulfill the Vision

8 Partnerships Build issue-driven UC teams, partnering with the community to address Vision issues Broaden county partnership, cluster combined with counties choosing from a menu of programs Assess resources to align with Vision initiatives, form teams System where content experts and programs are statewide, not defined by county borders, all communities have access to information

9 Marketing - branding Hire professional fund-raiser for ANR Develop grass roots marketing campaign – brand ANR as UC – create new logo etc. Develop advocacy structure modeled after industry, commodity groups Uniform branding – ANR as science based source of info and programs

10 Marketing -- branding Identify direct and indirect economic value of CE and ANR Improve internal communications structure Build funding connections to all foundations and grant funders Enhance awareness of ANR – increase CS capacity Need consistent identity – ANR is a statewide campus

11 Internal Reward System Achieving ANR vision requires all ANR academics to buy-in, need reward structure as incentive to buy-in Align organizational and individual performance metrics Reward folks for participating in the continuum Modify the promotion criteria to increase capacity to meet public mission Improve connection as ANR team through merit promotion process

12 Teams and collaborations Create integrated common culture Support research and extension projects under the Vision initiatives Breakdown barriers Develop multidisciplinary structures to implement Vision Closely align organizational performance metrics to measure outcomes

13 Teams and collaborations UC ANR led teams as source of science based solutions partnering with others to create impact Strengthen the continuum, reward collaborative projects ‘sabbatical’ exchange programs between campus and county Strengthen relations with campus through grant programs, focus on emerging issues in Vision

14 Now, where do we go from here? A few ideas on process that have been suggested…

15 Potential future process a.Form groups of ‘young’ ANR members Cross counties, campus Cross disciplines --Focus groups on a set of ideas from statewide conference --One rep from each group form larger group to draft Implementation Plan

16 Potential future process b. Organize committees by questions –e.g. should county-based CE be modified? –e.g. should there by one ANR grants unit? –Chairs of each committee form an integration committee to assess recommendations –“Transition Team” to pull it together

17 Potential future process c. Utilize workgroups/continuing conferences to capitalize on existing synergies –Focus on ideas from statewide conference –Program Council or Executive Council to pull together recommendations into Implementation Plan

18 Other considerations How do we engage/appoint teams? –Ask Deans and SP Directors to nominate –Ask for volunteers –Hybrid of both Utilize our existing work from previous planning efforts Explore models outside California (appoint committee to explicitly analyze) Need explicit external stakeholder input and broad ANR input

19 ANR Strategic Vision to Regents July 2009 Put the Strategic Vision session ideas on the web Convene a small, diverse group to design the implementation planning process (summer) Develop plan to implement the Strategic Vision (2009-2010) Next Steps
