To help organizations translate technology investments into leadership capability, organizational performance and innovation, Â鶹ӳ»´«Ã½ is launching the School of Technology, Leadership and Innovation (STLI), a university-wide initiative designed to connect faculty expertise with industry challenges in technology-driven fields.<\/p>\n
Organizations interested in partnering with STLI should contact Tiffany Hughes<\/a> in the College of Business or Michael Harding<\/a> \u00a0in Â鶹ӳ»´«Ã½ Corporate Partnerships to explore collaboration opportunities.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Drawing on Â鶹ӳ»´«Ã½\u2019s strengths as Florida\u2019s Technological University, STLI will serve as the university\u2019s hub for developing deep corporate partnerships through custom executive education, professional credentials, applied research and data-driven solutions. The school will provide expertise across engineering and computer science, business, psychology and related disciplines to help businesses and organizations adapt to technological change while improving leadership capability.<\/p>\n
\u201cÂ鶹ӳ»´«Ã½ plays a critical role in helping address the challenges shaping the future of industry,\u201d says Â鶹ӳ»´«Ã½ President Alexander N. Cartwright. \u201cThe School of Technology, Leadership and Innovation strengthens our ability to work alongside organizations as they navigate change and turn emerging technologies into leadership capability, organizational performance, and real-world impact.\u201d<\/p>\n
Serving Future-Focused Organizations<\/h2>\n
Unlike traditional academic units, STLI will draw on faculty expertise from across the university rather than hiring new faculty. The school will create new opportunities for Â鶹ӳ»´«Ã½ scholars to engage directly with organizations through executive programs, professional certifications, consulting engagements and applied research collaborations. In addition to a slate of proprietary offerings, STLI will work with organizations to develop custom solutions to meet a company\u2019s specific needs.<\/p>\n
The school, which is designed to generate revenue for the university, will create new opportunities for Â鶹ӳ»´«Ã½ scholars to engage directly with organizations through executive programs, professional certifications, consulting engagements and applied research collaborations.<\/p>\n
\u201cTechnology is changing the nature of work and the structure of organizations,\u201d says College of Business Dean Paul Jarley. \u201cSTLI connects Â鶹ӳ»´«Ã½\u2019s excellence in engineering, computing business and the human sciences to help leaders understand not just how technology works, but how to lead organizations through technological change. This initiative is the next logical step in Â鶹ӳ»´«Ã½\u2019s long-standing commitment to partnering with technology-driven organizations that power Florida\u2019s economy and beyond.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThis initiative is the next logical step in Â鶹ӳ»´«Ã½\u2019s long-standing commitment to partnering with technology-driven organizations that power Florida\u2019s economy and beyond.\u201d \u2014 Paul Jarley, College of Business dean<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Initial development of STLI is being coordinated by the College of Business in collaboration with faculty leaders from the College of Engineering and Computer Science and with strategic oversight from the Provost\u2019s Office.<\/p>\n
The launch of STLI represents the next phase of Â鶹ӳ»´«Ã½\u2019s strategy to expand collaboration with the technology-driven organizations shaping Florida\u2019s future like Pegasus Partner Addition Financial Credit Union.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs a financial institution that prides\u00a0itself\u00a0on\u00a0innovating to better serve its members, Addition Financial is honored to partner with [the] Â鶹ӳ»´«Ã½ \u2026 School of Technology Leadership and Innovation,\u201d says\u00a0Kevin Miller, president and CEO of\u00a0Addition Financial.\u00a0\u201cThis is an exciting evolution of the future-facing collaboration Â鶹ӳ»´«Ã½ is known for, and we are looking forward to working alongside the school to unlock the promise of advancing key areas from AI strategy to workforce readiness.\u201d<\/p>\n
By connecting faculty expertise with real-world challenges, the school extends the university\u2019s impact beyond campus while preparing leaders who can guide innovation responsibly and effectively.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur engagement with Â鶹ӳ»´«Ã½ provides highly valuable insights that helped us look at our operational challenges from a fresh perspective,” says Mohamed Hassan, head of business excellence North America, Siemens Energy. “The collaboration is both rigorous and forward leaning, and it enables us to translate ideas into tangible next steps for our business.\u201d<\/p>\n
How to Partner<\/h2>\n
