New Research on Curricular Agility — Where Does Your Program Land? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Graduate Business Curriculum Roundtable just released a study of 69 graduate business schools examining whether institutions have the organizational systems to detect external change and translate it into sustained curriculum adaptation. One finding stood out: roughly a third of schools have the operational capability to adapt — but don't consistently activate it. The researchers call this "Latent Agility," and it may describe more institutions in this community than the more dramatic "high-
VALIDATE – The Assumptions Behind Your Graduate Program (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Making a Difference One Play at a Time. Every graduate program runs on assumptions about its learners, faculty, employers, and alumni that get treated as settled fact instead of what they are: untested claims. VALIDATE is a four-step method — state the assumption, convert it into a falsifiable hypothesis, match the method to the stakes, and assign it to the right person — for finding out which of those assumptions are load-bearing, and which ones have simply never been tested.
The Post-Graduation Intelligence System (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Most graduate programs stay in touch with their alumni. Almost none of them are actually learning anything from it. A call. A newsletter. A reunion invite. That's a relationship — not a research instrument. And it tells you nothing about whether your curriculum actually worked once your graduates were out in the world using it. There's one tool most programs already have that could answer that question. It just gets retired the moment it would start paying off. That tool is the Bridge Matrix. Th
The Bridge Matrix (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Most graduate programs run three conversations that never touch: what learners need, what curriculum teaches, and what employers expect on day one. The Bridge Matrix is a single tool — built on Bloom's Taxonomy — that plots all three on one grid, so the gaps between them become visible instead of assumed. This Play walks through how to build the matrix, read it, and run it twice: once to plan a curriculum cycle, and again to prove what changed.
The Graduate Program Purpose Statement - Discovering What Your Graduate Program Stands For - and Building It to Last (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Your graduate program probably has a mission statement. Here's the problem: it almost certainly belongs to someone else. Most graduate program mission statements are one of two things: • The university's institutional mission with a discipline-specific phrase inserted. • Something so broadly worded it could apply to any program at any institution in the country. Neither of those is a purpose statement. And both fail the program in ways that compound. A statement that could belong to any program
