March 16, 2018 Dr. Jeff Ollerhead Chair, Search Committee for Dean of Social Sciences & Business Mount Allison University Dear Dr. Ollerhead: I am excited to apply for the position of Dean of Social Sciences & Business. I see a strong fit between the position and my experience gained over two decades of work in the academic, public and corporate sectors around the world. Mount Allison University’s vision of a future where students actively engage in working together to meet new challenges, both locally and globally aligns very well with my passion about providing opportunities to discover and to advance student leadership competencies. In my current role as Dean of the Faculty of Social Sciences I have developed a better appreciation of the strength and needs of the faculty, its students and the opportunities for the future. After assuming the position as Dean, I met with all faculty and staff individually to listen to their ideas and vision for the future of the faculty. Incorporating my vision with their ideas, I launched a number of new initiatives to encourage faculty and student engagement and build on the strength of Mount Allison as a top liberal arts university. Some of these initiatives include: an annual newsletter showcasing achievements of faculty and students, honors research day, recognition of faculty accomplishments such as book publications, a new teaching award for non-tenure track faculty members, addressing the need for renewal of faculty computing resources, support for faculty initiatives such as the “Presently Engaged Series”, “Middle East Symposium”, experiential learning opportunities such as diversity and inclusion training for Sociology students, welcome back BBQ event for faculty and regular potluck events to connect faculty. Moving forward, I intend to continue my engagement with faculty and staff to connect their ideas with the strategic plan for the university Given the demographic challenges in Canada and the increasing competitive global landscape of opportunities for students, the Faculty of Social Sciences will need to ensure that it is among one of the preferred choices for both Canadian and International students. This can happen through differentiated and excellent programming choices which are well aligned to the external environment, world-class faculty, solid research productivity, strong brand identity, excellent communication strategy and links to the Canadian and global network of alumni. I am a strong believer in linking theory with practice and have introduced innovative applications of pedagogical techniques in the fields of entrepreneurship and finance. As an award-winning professor at Mount Allison University, I have introduced new courses which provide an experiential learning opportunity to students. An example is the Venture Capital and Finance of

Innovation (VC&FI) course which partners business students with faculty members in the science departments to commercialize their inventions (in one iteration, students successfully pitched and won $100,000 in venture capital for the inventor). I am a strong supporter of connecting disciplines and offering unique insights for our students. One recent example is the “Money, Markets and Merchants” course offered in partnership with the History Department. The Faculty of Social Sciences has a rich tradition of experiential courses and in my role as Dean, I will endeavour to build on this and encourage promoting multi and interdisciplinary initiatives in this area as well. To facilitate the linkage between theory and practice, I have developed and nurtured an extensive network of contacts among the external community at the local and national level. I have been a champion for leveraging technology to facilitate student learning, such as using Skype in bringing “Virtual Guest Speakers” from around the world into the classroom. Building on the VC&FI course, I was the lead person in developing a “Business of Science” workshop in collaboration with business and science faculty. This was followed with a “Business of Arts” workshop and a planned “Business of Music” workshop in 2019. For five years, I was a regular contributor to the Globe and Mail newspaper writing a monthly article on innovation and entrepreneurship. As a researcher, I have a successful record of publications in refereed academic journals, peer-reviewed conference proceedings and academic conference presentations. I have been recognized as an expert in Canada on Hawala, an informal money transfer system, and have been invited as keynote speaker at international conferences, interviewed by print and electronic media and consulted by law firms and law enforcement agencies. I have an active research agenda with collaborative projects with colleagues at Mount Allison and other national and international universities. Over the last two decades, I have participated in more than eighty national and international conferences and have been invited for delivering keynote speeches and guest lectures at a number of national and international universities. During this period, I have successfully worked on securing research grants totaling more than $1,000,000. Recognizing the role funding plays in research, I recently started a project to develop a map of research needs of faculty. The information collected will not only allow for identifying needs but also help find, with the input from the Office of Research Services, various new sources of research funding that can be accessed by faculty members. I was actively engaged in the various reviews of the Commerce Department, which led to raising five million Dollars from Mr. Ron Joyce for the establishment of the Ron Joyce Center for Business Studies. More recently, I was involved in developing a proposal for funding support for encouraging experiential entrepreneurial initiatives across the university. The proposal was successful in raising $500,000 from Ms. Heather Reisman. As the Director of Leadership Mount Allison, I was involved in streamlining the program and prepared a report for internal and external stakeholders. In the last eighteen months I have partnered with the university’s advancement and recruitment departments to develop ideas for new fundraising opportunities and enhance recruitment and retention activities. I am the first incumbent to serve as the university’s Academic Integrity Officer with a mandate to implement the guidelines for appropriate academic conduct and administration of the Academic Integrity Policy. I was honoured to serve as the Chair of the President’s Speaker Series which focused on the “Year of Indigenous Action”. This opportunity helped me recognize the importance and the need to focus more closely on developing this file.

As my CV indicates, I do not have a traditional background rooted exclusively in academia. In addition to my leadership roles in the university environment, I have held senior-level positions in the corporate sector, start-up environment and the public service. These experiences provide me with a strong skill set to navigate comfortably in the various environments and to work with a diversified team of departments and faculty members required from the Dean of Social Sciences & Business. My academic administrative experience spans a Decanal appointment, Academic Integrity Officer, Head of business programs at two universities and Director of Leadership Mount Allison Program. These experiences coupled with my service on university committees, has helped me develop a keen insight into the workings of the academic practice and respect for the collegial process. These positions have allowed me to interact with and develop contacts among various stakeholder groups and honed my skills to prepare and present arguments clearly and effectively to a wide range of audiences. While serving in these various roles, I have developed extensive experience in leadership, strategic planning, program development and resource management. In the corporate and public-sector environments, I have been a successful President & CEO, consultant and advisor managing multi-million-dollar mutual funds, privatization projects and consulting assignments. I have been involved in successfully transforming projects from concept to reality and developed strong networking, partnership and team building capabilities. I strongly believe that people are at the heart of any enterprise. Leading people towards a goal requires alignment and motivation but it is equally important to empower people to successfully execute strategy to achieve the shared goals. This requires effective management practices to create an enabling environment to take the people and the enterprise to the next level. One of the key roles for the Dean will be to create a set of shared common goals with various internal stakeholders such as students, faculty & staff, senior administration, alumni as well as with external stakeholders such as the government and community-at-large. Engaging and involving these groups will help advance the Faculty of Social Sciences and provide exceptional opportunities for our students, faculty and community. I will be delighted to provide additional information and alert my references, who can shed light on my abilities and experiences for this position. I look forward to hearing from you and thank you, and members of the search committee, for your consideration and time. With warmest regards,
