I know I did, but I also know that time between the holidays and jumping back into work can feel a little... disorienting.

    157. Marc Camille: Chief Storyteller

    This week, Dr. Marc Camille talks to us about his career path and approach to development as a college president. He sees himself as a chief storyteller and talks to us about ways he has built a strong culture of philanthropy while planning the Centennial Celebration of Albertus Magnus College!   Dr. Marc M. Camille took office as the 14th President of Albertus Magnus College in June 2017. His career includes more than two decades of senior administrative experience at Catholic colleges. His leadership is inspired by Albertus Magnus’ distinctive, values-based Dominican mission and the College’s legacy of prioritizing education opportunity for those who might not otherwise have access. Prior to joining Albertus Magnus, Dr. Camille earned a national reputation for strategic enrollment management and marketing expertise and thought-leadership. Dr. Camille’s presidency has seen Albertus Magnus launch an ambitious growth plan, deepen engagement within the greater New Haven area, and adopt a bold new strategic plan, Albertus 2025: Lighting the Way to a Second Century, setting the stage for the College’s Centennial Celebration in 2025. Dr. Camille’s leadership has prioritized deepened commitments to diversity, equity, and inclusion, and in 2023, Albertus achieved federal designation status as an Hispanic Serving Institution. A comprehensive fundraising campaign is underway to coincide with the College’s 2025 Centennial. Dr. Camille earned his Bachelor’s degree in English at Rollins College, his Master’s degree at the University of Miami, and his Doctorate in Higher Education Management at the University of Pennsylvania.

    151. Justin Fincher: Inhabiting The Gap

    This week, we feature Justin Fincher (Chief Deputy to the President of Stony Brook University and Senior Vice President for Government and Community Relations and Executive Director of the Stony Brook Foundation) for the second time. The first time he was featured was episode 55 where he spoke with Mike Eicher in his former role at The Ohio State University. Justin’s view on leadership inspires me. We talk about how he has navigated his career path, ways he has created growth for himself, and how he has guided his team to step up in times of change. Justin encourages us to find the signal in the noise and inhabit the gap! We get to hear a bit about what Stony Brook’s “secret sauce” is and I encourage you to think about what it is at your home institution. Let’s get started.  Please reach out and follow on @devebrief. Let me know if you decide to explore your secret sauce and if you found this episode helpful. I’d love to hear your thoughts.
