No matter how big your school is or where you are geographically located, we all face similar challenges in supporting our staff and designing our spaces. In this episode, Cody Bennett, Manager of User Services at the University of Alaska Southeast discusses the unique challenges in being located where vendors won’t regularly come, and how they are a true home grown department. He drops golden lines throughout the entire episode, like “leadership is influence,” “make principle choices, not technology choices,” and “the impact is in the people. People are still hurting.” And be sure to listen to the end for special “bonus content!”Connect with Cody Bennett on Twitter at @CodyJBennett and on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/in/codyjbennett/.
