Everybody Wants to Be on a Winning Team: Confrontation and Caretaking in Higher Ed Marketing

Higher ed creative teams have seen incredible changes since Covid, for better or worse. We saw a shift that included a greater appreciation for work-life balance for employees, but is there a point when leadership’s focus on caretaking hurts more than helps?
WAYNE BARRINGER
Wayne Barringer, Founder of Jaro Group, believes many higher ed marketing leaders have lost sight of their North Star, and their teams know it.

Wayne’s harrowing climb up Mt. Kilimanjaro in 2018 gave him a unique perspective on confronting the fear of the moment. Now, he’s using that insight to help unlock leaders’ superpowers so they can get the most out of their higher ed creative teams. And it starts with pausing to take in the view.
