Beyond the Inherited Tactics

Why belonging, not better tactics, decides who enrolls and who stays.

The conversation

How the conversation flows

  1. Open

    We set the room: who's here, how it works, and the cross-institution research behind today's question.

  2. The uncomfortable truth

    We name an uncomfortable truth facing higher education and challenge it head-on.

  3. Shaping it together

    Together we shape the uncomfortable truth into what we all see.

  4. The vision

    We imagine the ideal future, unchained from today's constraints.

  5. The close

    One forward-looking question to reflect on how the vision could become reality.
