Feedback for Department Chairs

Feedback for Department Chairs

We are currently conducting research on each of the feedback systems. Updated forms, improved reports, and optional features, including a self-reflection and gap analysis, will be announced soon. Please contact the Center for the current project status.

This one-of-a-kind system is the only nationally normed tool for evaluating chairpersons and providing a formative basis for their development. Feedback for Department Chairs recognizes that different management styles and strategies come into play when addressing different responsibilities. The system measures effectiveness by soliciting faculty input on how well the chairperson has used different administrative methods to meet identified goals for the department. Faculty responses are collected online and analyzed using The IDEA Center’s national database. The resulting report provides direction on specific areas of strength and strategies for improvement.

The feedback I receive from IDEA, coupled with other forms of ongoing formal and informal feedback, has quite simply made me a better leader.  It is wonderful to receive the IDEA data in such a timely and well-organized fashion.  This allows me to spend more time reflecting on the information....and striving to improve my performance.
