Resumo
O objetivo deste artigo foi desenvolver investigação empírica, teoria da liderança, práticas de universidades abertas e tendências globais em mudança para fornecer aos líderes de universidades abertas uma estrutura para a redefinição estratégica. A redefinição estratégica é redefinir as prioridades das instituições – fazer escolhas de liderança – e tomar medidas para construir vantagem competitiva, qualidade e serviço para o futuro. Os pilares fundamentais da redefinição estratégica estão centrados na 1) digitalização – especificamente a capacidade online; 2) definir novas prioridades estratégicas e 3) estabelecer uma presença nacional alinhada com as necessidades críticas de emprego e desenvolvimento da força de trabalho nacional. Um tema secundário que perpassa este artigo é a necessidade de as universidades abertas revitalizarem o seu compromisso com a inovação. O artigo conclui oferecendo algumas ações táticas que os líderes das universidades abertas podem considerar para elaborar uma redefinição estratégica e definir novas prioridades para o futuro. Isto inclui: 1) modelos simplificados de universidades abertas; 2) acesso de precisão; 3) construir uma pegada de serviço nacional; 4) renovação de parcerias críticas; e 5) explorar modelos alternativos de financiamento.
