Rethinking the Higher Education Workplace in an Era of Transformation

A part of NACUBO's State of Higher Education Series

The COVID-19 pandemic has had dramatic effects on the nation’s workforce. Now, employers must navigate how to (or whether to) bring employees back to the office or other worksites, meet shifting expectations for workplace benefits, and foster a culture that promotes innovation and change. NACUBO's latest State of Higher Education brief and accompanying slides explore evidence-based insight into national workforce trends, look at the impacts of such trends on the higher education sector, and offer considerations for leaders as they navigate the challenges and opportunities of this evolving environment.
