Higher Education

Higher education leadership requires executives who can navigate complex governance structures, balance stakeholder expectations, and drive institutional excellence in an increasingly challenging environment. Harvard Group International's education practice serves universities, colleges, community colleges, and academic medical centers.

Our education team includes consultants with backgrounds in higher education administration who grasp the unique dynamics of academic institutions: the role of faculty governance, the importance of shared leadership, and the challenges of balancing academic mission with financial sustainability.

We have experience placing presidents, provosts, deans, and administrative leaders across higher education. We recognize the importance of cultural fit in academic environments and the need for leaders who can work effectively with faculty, boards, students, and other stakeholders.
