Forum editorial: Higher ed still mired in a mess

Letter: Success requires change
Change is never easy as it forces us to leave our comfort zone, but in today’s world, change is a requirement for success.

If organizations don’t actively manage change, decisions are delayed, deadlines are missed, roles and responsibilities get lost in the confusion, and frustration and stagnation set in.
