Partners in Progress: Academic and Business Leadership

How do strong partnerships between campus chief academic and business officers result in better decisions? Southern Connecticut State University’s Julia Irwin, interim provost and vice president for academic affairs, and Lillian Wanjagi, vice president for finance and administration and CFO, join NACUBO’s Bryan Dickson to explore the increasingly important relationship between provosts and CBOs. They discuss building trust and transparency, bringing complementary perspectives, and focusing on shared institutional goals when navigating complex decisions. From balancing academic priorities and financial realities to managing change, the conversation highlights how collaboration can strengthen institutions and ultimately better support students.
