Résumé
Cet article s'appuie sur la recherche empirique, la théorie du leadership, la pratique des universités ouvertes et l'évolution des tendances mondiales pour fournir aux dirigeants des universités ouvertes un cadre de refonte stratégique. La refonte stratégique consiste à redéfinir les priorités des établissements – en effectuant des choix de leadership – et à prendre des mesures pour renforcer l'avantage concurrentiel, la qualité et les services pour l'avenir. Les piliers fondamentaux de la refonte stratégique s'articulent autour de : 1) la numérisation, et plus particulièrement les capacités en ligne; 2) la définition de nouvelles priorités stratégiques; et 3) l'établissement d'une empreinte nationale alignée sur les besoins nationaux essentiels en matière d'emploi et de développement de la main-d'œuvre. Un thème secondaire transparaît dans cet article : la nécessité pour les universités ouvertes de revitaliser leur engagement en faveur de l'innovation. L'article conclut en proposant quelques actions tactiques que les dirigeants des universités ouvertes peuvent envisager pour encadrer leur refonte stratégique et définir de nouvelles priorités pour l'avenir. Parmi celles-ci : 1) des modèles d'universités ouvertes rationalisés; 2) un accès précis; 3) la création d'une empreinte nationale de services; 4) le renouvellement des partenariats essentiels; et 5) l'exploration de modèles de financement alternatifs.
