Leadership Positions

Department Chair, the Department of Management and Entrepreneurship, 2019 - 2023.

Director, The Leadership Prize, Elon University, 2014 – 2018. 2019 - 2021.  I developed and implemented The Leadership Prize program, a scholarship program to fund scholarly projects to address significant social issues.

Leadership Mentor, Leadership Fellows Program, 2017 – 2018, Elon University.  I served as the Faculty mentor for the 2017-2021 Leadership Fellows.

Associate Dean for Graduate Business Programs, Creighton University, 2007 – 2008.  I was responsible for the administration of three graduate degree programs – a Masters of Business Administration (MBA) program, a Masters of Information Technology Management program, and a Masters of Security Analysis and Portfolio Management program.  I was also responsible for all graduate programs recruitment, admissions, and curriculum.  In addition to graduate programs responsibilities, I worked with the Dean on strategic initiatives, fundraising, accreditation, and other special projects.  Central to my efforts this past year has been the implementation of a curriculum redesign in the MBA program. 

Director, the Anna Tyler Waite Center for Leadership, Creighton University, 2001 – 2011.  The Waite Center offers leadership development activities for Creighton University students and faculty and for greater Omaha business executives.  The center is endowed by the Waite Family with an initial gift of $1.1 million.  The Waite Family has since given an additional $1 million to fund additional leadership scholarships.  As director, I developed and sponsored a Leadership Conversations series and other leadership development activities.  I have also developed and sponsored the Creighton Business Symposium, which is a professional event for students in the College of Business Administration and the greater Omaha business community.  In 2010, we hosted over 450 students and 100 business partners for a series of keynote addresses and panel discussions.  Students organizing the event raised between $40,000 and $50,000 each year to cover all expenses.

Developer and Program Coordinator, Anna Tyler Waite Leadership Scholars, 2000 – 2011.  The Anna Tyler Waite Leadership Scholars Program is a co-curricular leadership development program offered to undergraduate business administration students at Creighton University.  The program is a four-year program where students participate in a series of activities designed to promote their understanding of leadership and their leadership skills.  In 2009 – 2010, over 240 students (out of 650 business students) were enrolled in the program.
