This document discusses the need for planners in higher education to transition from traditional planners to transformation architects. A transformation architect has a future-focused mindset and proactively champions change. They demonstrate skills in futuring, apply advanced analytical tools, and integrate processes across divisions. The goal is to achieve transformative outcomes that ensure the sustainability and relevance of higher education. The presentation provides examples from a case study of how one university invested in data analytics to improve student success, restructured planning functions, and aligned strategies and metrics to guide institutional transformation efforts towards goals for 2030.

Nudging Students to Success in Higher EducationColleen Carmean
Personalized support and engagement, inside the course and in the student experience, is now possible due to new technologies, ubiquitous access and just-n-time analytics.
From WCET 2016 where Carmean and Robinson make the claim that “digital pointillism” and seeking meaning in pattern has changed the way we see the world. From a distance, blurry clusters of dots - whether in colors, data, behaviors, beliefs - can provide a broader understanding that comes to life with making patterns visual. Just as Seurat and Signac connected dots to allow us to understand a canvas differently, analytics work, by clustering and displaying the dots in new, unseen ways, enables institutions to see patterns in what is - or can be - known about our learners.

Transforming Brand Perception and Boosting Profitabilityaaryangarg12
In today's digital era, the dynamics of brand perception, consumer behavior, and profitability have been profoundly reshaped by the synergy of branding, social media, and website design. This research paper investigates the transformative power of these elements in influencing how individuals perceive brands and products and how this transformation can be harnessed to drive sales and profitability for businesses.
Through an exploration of brand psychology and consumer behavior, this study sheds light on the intricate ways in which effective branding strategies, strategic social media engagement, and user-centric website design contribute to altering consumers' perceptions. We delve into the principles that underlie successful brand transformations, examining how visual identity, messaging, and storytelling can captivate and resonate with target audiences.
Methodologically, this research employs a comprehensive approach, combining qualitative and quantitative analyses. Real-world case studies illustrate the impact of branding, social media campaigns, and website redesigns on consumer perception, sales figures, and profitability. We assess the various metrics, including brand awareness, customer engagement, conversion rates, and revenue growth, to measure the effectiveness of these strategies.
The results underscore the pivotal role of cohesive branding, social media influence, and website usability in shaping positive brand perceptions, influencing consumer decisions, and ultimately bolstering sales and profitability. This paper provides actionable insights and strategic recommendations for businesses seeking to leverage branding, social media, and website design as potent tools to enhance their market position and financial success.

Our campus case studies and research have brought us to an eight step process for transforming in turbulent times. See this graphic on Transformation at a Glance. We describe several stages in transformation including understanding the disruptive forces demanding a new learning enterprise, we see planning for a long-ter transformation campaign, teams then launch the campaign, developing a sense of urgency. In this process campuses shape a bold vision, crafting expeditionary strategies that move towards a future. Some are calling these strategies Destination 2030. With plans, campaigns, bold vision and strategies, several processes are needed to sustain the transformative movement including reinventing business models and ongoing orchestrating the transformation.
