Over the last few decades universities in Australia and overseas
have been criticized for not meeting the needs and expectations of
the societies in which they operate. At the heart of this problem
is their strategy. This book reviews the organizational-level
strategies of some of Australia's prominent universities. It is
based on their public documents that boldly report how they see
their role in society and how they intend to navigate the future.
These strategic statements are written to proclaim relevance,
showcase achievements, attract students, and help to gain the
support of the communities in which they operate. Using a strategy
framework taught in their business schools, this book suggests that
most such statements are deficient. Grand aspirations substitute
for realistic operations and outcomes. The analysis also suggests
that many of Australia's universities are poorly governed and have
become too complex and bureaucratic. A greater focus on their core
responsibilities would help alleviate their current funding
predicament.
