Supporting Elevating Strengths Initiative

Summary

Elevating Strengths is an exploration led by a working group out of the institution’s provost’s office to evaluate and improve the administrative structure of the three schools within Fort Lewis College: the School of Arts & Sciences, the School of Education, and the Katz School of Business. NCHEMS completed peer analysis and workforce data analysis to support the working group. NCHEMS also collaborated with the provost’s office to create custom artificial intelligence-enabled tools to support the working group’s deliberations.
