Higher Education is Under Pressure

We all know higher education is under pressure.
Leadership turnover, public distrust, political interference, and resource constraints are reshaping the landscape…fast. In this moment, faculty and academic leaders are being asked to do more with less, take on responsibilities beyond their training, and navigate complexity with little margin for error.
At NCPRE, we believe strong, values-based leadership is one of the most effective tools institutions have for weathering uncertainty and building resilience.
That’s why we offer:
- Evidence-based professional development programs
- Research-validated assessment tools
- Just-in-time resources that support real-world decision-making
We partner with institutions across the country to help faculty, staff, and administrators lead with clarity, purpose, and integrity; no matter the challenge.
That work includes our Chairs and Heads Principled Academic Leadership (PAL) Program: a cohort-based experience that equips academic leaders with practical tools for navigating difficult conversations, aligning decisions with institutional values, and leading teams through periods of change.
