“UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — This month, Penn State is launching a national search for the University’s 19th president after a phased listening process in which students, faculty, staff, alumni, donors and other community members provided feedback on the desired qualities and characteristics of the University’s next leader.
To kick off the search, the Presidential Recruitment and Selection Committee and executive search firm Spencer Stuart have developed a leadership profile — based on findings shared in the Next Gen Penn State Advisory Group Report — outlining the qualities, experiences, challenges and opportunities for successful candidates.
“Penn State is a leader in higher education ranking among the top universities in the world with a vibrant community of talented students, faculty, staff and alumni spanning the Commonwealth and world,” said Matt Schuyler, chair of the Penn State Board of Trustees. “We are seeking a collaborative leader with interdisciplinary perspective to continue to move the University’s teaching, research and public service mission forward. The ideal candidate will be dedicated to supporting student success and faculty and staff achievement, while continuing to build on our commitment to access and affordability, elevating our research profile, and advancing diversity, equity and inclusion across our campus communities.”
The leadership profile will help guide the upcoming search process, which will be led by the Presidential Recruitment and Selection Committee, a 19-member group co-chaired by Trustees Mark H. Dambly and Julie Anna Potts with student, faculty and staff representatives.
With the assistance of Spencer Stuart, a global executive search firm with a leading practice in education and nonprofit presidential transitions, the committee will begin the search this month with the goal to recommend top finalist(s) to the Board of Trustees following a thorough recruitment and vetting process.”
I glow with anticipation that the diligence and experience brought to bear will deliver a first-rate leader to our great university who will embrace our cherished past, our excellent present, and our bright future. For the glory!
