My leadership team and I are discussing strategic goals and planning. I occasionally read listserv postings from James Dutcher who has provided a model for strategic planning in higher education. Nice job, James!

A few days ago I was involved in a project requiring an analysis of the stakeholders. My colleagues and I found this page from Santa Clara University to be very helpful.

Top-Ten IT Issues, 2010 (EDUCAUSE Review) | EDUCAUSE: “Administered by the EDUCAUSE Current Issues Committee, the electronic survey was conducted in December 2009.1 Survey participants — typically CIOs of EDUCAUSE member institutions — were asked to select the five most-important IT issues out of a selection of twenty-seven in each of four areas: (1) issues that are critical for strategic success; (2) issues that are expected to increase in significance; (3) issues that demand the greatest amount of the campus IT leader’s time; and (4) issues that require the largest expenditures of human and fiscal resources.”

Getting started with “Getting Things Done” | 43 Folders.
From Merlin Mann at 43 Folders. Being in a new job and working on some new projects I needed to revisit this.
I read David Allen’s book, Getting Things Done (GTD) in 2004. It changed the way I worked and live. Merlin Mann is someone I listen to whenever I can and he has some videos on his web site of presentations he has done, I recommend them.
This commentary on GTD is definitely inspiring and I recommend anyone add 43Folders to their RSS feed.
