Optimizing the use of campus resources, including the efficient use of time and technology, is essential as we aim to meet the long-term vision of the University. By leveraging technology and prioritizing efficient use of campus spaces and travel time, Lehigh can ensure increased academic programming opportunities and productivity of its employees.
Goals
- Promote the use of new technology to facilitate internal and external collaboration across the University without requiring travel to in-person meetings. These technology solutions provide audio and video conferencing services across all operating systems and mobile platforms.
- Collaborate with Human Resources to develop management guidelines for telecommuting and flexible work locations.
- Collaborate with the Registrar’s Office to adjust class schedules as needed to provide students with efficient transit to and from class and other academic programs.
- Develop new cultural norms for meetings to give people ample and reasonable travel time.
