Position description

The University of California, Berkeley, the nation's premier public research university, invites nominations and applications for the position of Dean of the UC Berkeley Walter A. Haas School of Business (Berkeley Haas).

Berkeley Haas has a rich history of innovation and excellence. Founded in 1898 as the first U.S. business school at a public university, the School is one of the world's leading producers of new ideas and knowledge in all areas of business that influence both business and society. In recent years, Berkeley Haas has celebrated milestones such as record-setting philanthropic support, the launch of innovative academic programs, and an increased focus on interdisciplinary initiatives like sustainability and climate innovation. Among its many exciting initiatives, Berkeley Haas also was recently chosen to lead a transformative regional research innovation hub, supported by a $15 million grant from the National Science Foundation, to bridge the gap between academia and entrepreneurship across the Northwest.

As the highest ranked public business school in the country by U.S. News and World Report, Berkeley Haas stands at the forefront of innovation, entrepreneurship, and academic excellence.

Building on the School's many strengths, the next Dean will be an inclusive and strategic visionary who listens deeply and excels at fostering collaborations across diverse stakeholders - including the School, University, alumni network, and business community. This leader will need to navigate the complexities of a public university, serve as a dynamic public advocate for both Haas and UC Berkeley, deeply value shared governance, and promote campus-wide partnerships to successfully advance the University's mission. By skillfully balancing the School's priorities in research, teaching, and fundraising in this context, the next Dean will define Berkeley Haas's north star and chart a bold path for the future that positions Berkeley Haas at the forefront of innovation, social responsibility, and global impact in today's dynamic global business education landscape. To be successful, the Dean will address the following set of opportunities and challenges, outlined below:

• Develop, communicate, and execute a bold shared vision for Berkeley Haas that positions it for the future of business, technology, and society
