I may have an opportunity to work with a troubled University department.
Relationships are poor and their is little cooperation. The
sub-disciplines just tolerate each other. The head of Department wants to
set up a group of the most positive staff to identify how things can be
improved and implement positive changes.
I think they may find some examples of what excellent University
Departments do and how they are managed, useful. These would also stretch
my thinking. Do any of you have information ideas or sources on this? I
would also appreciate any comments. This would be my first major
developmental project in a University. They are not like commercial
organisations at all.
