More than 165 years ago, we began as an institution offering women a liberal arts education. In the decades that followed, we pioneered opportunities in international education, writing across the curriculum, and so much more. Even during turbulent times, the University continued to evolve and advance.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-paragraph \">\n<p>From our founding as Beaver College in 1853 to the present day, Arcadia University continues a remarkable journey as a top-ranked private university in Greater Philadelphia and a national leader in international education. U.S. News &amp; World Report ranks Arcadia nationally among the top universities in study abroad as well as among the top regional universities in the North. The Princeton Review has named Arcadia among the \u201cBest in the Northeast\u201d for five consecutive years, while the University\u2019s Physical Therapy and Physician Assistant programs are nationally ranked in their respective categories by U.S. News &amp; World Report.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-paragraph \">\n<p>Together, we have moved the Arcadia community forward in immeasurable ways. Our community embarked on the foundation for strategy work two years ago with the arrival of the University\u2019s 22nd President, Dr. Ajay Nair. We were intentional as a community to engage in strategy development as an inclusive process, with a thriving model that was adaptive. Given the uncertainty of the times, we reimagined the strategy process and the strategy itself. ARCADIA 2025 is a strategy intended to help us experiment and take initiative, ask questions and create synergies, and move Arcadia ahead in often unknown and unknowable environments.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-paragraph \">\n<p>Today, disruptions in higher education are unprecedented. We must create an agile organization that doesn\u2019t merely withstand external pressure\u2014we must grow from disruption. The adaptive strategy we are developing as a community will help us build the Arcadia University of the future by drawing on the intrinsic qualities that make us unique, while ensuring that every Arcadia student can reach their full potential.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-heading \">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-default-heading\" id=\"our-approach\">Our Approach: A Community of Practice<\/h2>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-paragraph \">\n<p>With an understanding of the major disruptions that are occurring in the higher education industry, we built a community of practice to enable and articulate our shared passions and commitments.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-paragraph \">\n<p>We began the paradigm shift in our community by building a shared agenda through our mission, vision, values, and strategic themes through UKnighted town hall meetings and the leadership of the Aspirational Steering Committee. Ultimately, our Adaptive Strategy is guided by our&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.arcadia.edu\/university\/mission-vision-lived-values\">mission, vision, and values<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-heading \">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-default-heading\">Our Mission<\/h3>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-paragraph \">\n<p>Arcadia University provides a distinctively global, integrative, and personal learning experience for intellectually curious undergraduate and graduate students in preparation for a life of scholarship, service, and professional contribution.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-heading \">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-default-heading\">Our Vision, Our Dream, Our Passion<\/h3>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-paragraph \">\n<p id=\"paradigm\">Arcadia University\u2019s pioneering, global, integrated, liberal arts, and professional learning experience cultivates leaders who are intellectually fearless and uniquely prepared for life and work. Our highly regarded, values-based learning community reflects the world in which we want to live.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-heading \">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-default-heading\">A Paradigm Shift<\/h2>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-paragraph \">\n<p>Our community work to date has uniquely positioned us to develop several possible scenarios and initiatives, culminating in nearly 100 initiatives organized around strategic themes. These initiatives have been prioritized into an appropriately ambitious, financially affordable, and flexible portfolio of strategic actions by our leadership team.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-paragraph \">\n<p>Through shared governance structures, and with Board oversight, we will execute, monitor, adapt, and redirect our strategy as needed to advance Arcadia. As we encounter unknown challenges, the University is well-positioned to thrive with this new philosophical shift in our strategic thinking and acting. The strategies described herein allow us to be nimble and pivot quickly as the future unfolds.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-paragraph \">\n<p>Rather than a rigid commitment to a strategy that is pinned down to programs and initiatives on a five- or even ten-year horizon, ours will provide constant assessment and evaluation in shorter intervals, where pivoting and shifting our efforts can be much more easily accomplished. Our Adaptive Strategy approach is guided by:<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-list \">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\" id=\"methodology\">\n<li>A firm focus on \u201cStudents at the Center,\u201d especially the student experience and student success<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Disciplined use of data and assessment \u2022 Iterative approaches that work toward constant improvement<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cabinet-level teamwork that ensures cross-unit collaboration<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A budget process that is driven by strategic priorities and enables resource collaboration across units<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cCenters\u201d of gravity that move complex initiatives forward (e.g., Center for Teaching, Learning, and Mentoring; Office of Social Impact and Innovation)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Consistent attention paid to campus- and community-wide readiness<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Strengthened stakeholder engagement with representative bodies (e.g., Faculty Senate, Staff Council, Student Government)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ongoing refinement of the Adaptive Strategy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-heading \">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-default-heading\">Methodology<\/h2>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-heading \">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-default-heading\">A Balanced Approach<\/h3>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-paragraph \">\n<p>Because Arcadia has been in a highly active state of development for the past two years, this Adaptive Strategy contains tactical details as part of its articulation. Strategic goals remain appropriately ambitious and innovative in nature and present different and new approaches to advancing an area of interest. In total, they represent a longer-term (two-to-four years) directive, are aligned with the Arcadia Vision, and focus on long-term success. Strategic goals require active leadership by the President\u2019s Cabinet for execution, working closely with next-level managers.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-paragraph \">\n<p>Through extensive scenario planning, our Adaptive Strategy represents a balance of actions focused on operational effectiveness, pilots or experiments that can be ramped up or scaled down quickly, and large-scale commitments where there is increasing clarity around a planned scenario in the face of uncertainty. Working collaboratively with the Board of Trustees, the administration will implement a cycle of execution, monitoring, adaptation, and potential redirection that will move Arcadia toward the most advantageous high-impact opportunities.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-heading \">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-default-heading\">Data-Informed Culture, Continuous Assessment, and Interconnectedness<\/h3>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-paragraph \">\n<p>The Adaptive Strategy\u2019s themes, goals, and objectives include many points of interconnectedness that will help us build more integrative approaches to complex initiatives that, along with their key performance indicators (KPIs), readily embrace goals and objectives found under other themes that will work to achieve desired outcomes. Through extensive and regular assessment and scenario planning in all levels of planning, the University will use cutting-edge software to align, organize, document, report, and monitor our actions. This system will support a data-informed adaptive strategy, program review, accreditation, and managing academic and administrative outcomes.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-heading \">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-default-heading\">College, Departmental, and Divisional Alignment<\/h3>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-paragraph \">\n<p>The four Themes and associated strategic goals capture a series of objectives and initiatives that are threaded throughout the Adaptive Strategy and cut across all of our colleges, departments, and divisions. With support and direction from the Office of Strategic Initiatives and the Office of Institutional Research and Effectiveness, departments will further align their strategy with the University\u2019s strategic direction and provide annual reports to ensure accountability. The University will produce a comprehensive annual report to document progress.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-heading \">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-default-heading\">Financial Sustainability<\/h3>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-paragraph \">\n<p>Once the strategic direction was approved in February by the Board, we have continued our work with the Board and community to align an adaptive multi-year business plan, further develop risk profiles for initiatives, solidify KPIs, continue work on a Campus Master Plan, and develop a collaborative system with the Board to monitor and respond to uncertainties. The strategic direction and associated goals, objectives, and initiatives in this document were prioritized because they will enable or directly contribute to student success and increased revenue. The Provost and Chief Financial Officer will work through our new budget governance process, and with the Finance and Infrastructure Committee of the Board, to align our strategic direction with the proposed fiscal year 2021 operating and capital budgets and a five-year business plan. We will seek approval in May for the fiscal year 2021 capital and operating budgets as well as a five-year business plan which supports the strategic direction, with the understanding that the adaptive nature of the strategy calls for periodic reviews that may result in redirection of strategy and associated resources.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-heading \">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-default-heading\">Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)<\/h3>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-paragraph \">\n<p>Theme Team leaders and identified initiative owners will undertake a process that articulates the specific metrics (e.g., number of persons, percent of matriculants) as well as target dates for completion. These specific data points will then be entered into a dynamic online strategic management system that will be actively managed and monitored by staff and administration. In addition, the initiative-level KPIs will inform a smaller set of plan-level KPIs that will more efficiently enable us to measure success. Status reports will be regularly generated from the strategic management system and provided to key stakeholders and Board committees for review.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-heading \">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-default-heading\">Risk Analysis and Mitigation<\/h3>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-paragraph \">\n<p id=\"strategic-theme-one\">Our Adaptive Strategy implementation process will include performing risk analyses of potential threats and shifts coming from both external and internal contexts. With direct involvement by members of the Board of Trustees and with community support, our leadership team will work to monitor and consider key uncertainties (e.g., business model risks, reputational risks, operating model risks, enrollment supply risks, compliance risks) and related signposts (e.g., KPIs) that will ensure our adaptability and antifragility as an organization.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-heading \">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-default-heading\">Strategic Theme One: Academic Excellence Through Impact and Authenticity<\/h2>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block  container-block-core-paragraph \">\n<p>Arcadia University\u2019s long-standing traditions of innovation, inclusion, and global engagement establish a unique evolutionary opportunity for the next decade: to redefine academic excellence as Arcadia\u2019s success in meeting students where they are, building transformational academic and professional experiences, and measuring attainment in terms of social impact and self-fulfillment.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\" container-fullwidth-block
