Strategic Plan Steering Committee Membership
Strategic plans of the magnitude of the one we are developing as an institution are not done alone. Consultation, discussion, interpretation, and ultimately choices are made in the development of strategic plans. Below, is a list of the governance committee for the development of the University of Alberta’s next strategic plan. Members will be tasked with leading consultation sessions with the community, reviewing the results of the consultation, and assisting in the translation of what has been shared into a strategic direction for the university, and finally to endorse a draft of the final plan to be submitted by President Flanagan to GFC.
