Help Create the Vision<br \/>\n<\/strong>For a need for a new Vision for the role and Mission of the institution. Mission &amp; Niche And your institution\u2019s Vision also has to include a niche that differentiates and distinguishes your continuing education unit, if not institution, from everyone else.<br \/>\nThat new Vision includes building on your historical mission and reframing it in terms of the needs of society in the 21<sup>st<\/sup> century.<br \/>\n<strong>II. Develop New Programs, Delivery, and Audiences<br \/>\n<\/strong>Pitch in. Every staff not only ca but must, contribute to the development of new programs, delivery formats and serving new audiences. Some common elements in new directions almost certainly will be more hybrid and online courses. Content programs will be most successful if they fill a need and niche, and serving new audiences also will have the most success if you choose audiences with whom you can be a major player.<br \/>\n<strong>III. Streamline Processes<br \/>\n<\/strong>Obsolete, cumbersome, customer unfriendly and time-consuming processes have to be revised and redesigned to be faster, simpler, less time consuming and customer friendly.<br \/>\nNew technology and software now can make processes and procedures both more effective and more efficient, saving valuable staff time that can be redirected to other core functions.<br \/>\nAs one Swedish labor union leader put it, \u201cI\u2019m not afraid of new technology.
