This preconference workshop is designed for academic and administrative leaders who want to use AI as a lever for innovation in leadership, teaching, and student support. The workshop will center on discussion, reflection, and real-world scenarios that surface the questions leaders are already confronting: student use and misuse of AI, faculty workload, staff reskilling, hiring and retention, policy development, and the role of AI in shaping learning, feedback, and academic integrity. Attendees will consider how these concerns can be reframed as opportunities for curricular change, mentoring, and evidence-informed decision-making. Through guided conversation and case-based prompts, attendees will examine how AI is reshaping expectations for leadership, program evaluation, communication, budgeting, and student success.
