Assistant Dean and Faculty in Leadership with a Focus on Racial Justice

Bard College’s low-residency MBA in Sustainability program, based in New York City, has an opening for a full-time position as Assistant Dean. The successful candidate will also have a specialization in personal and organizational leadership, teach two courses per year, and contribute to leadership education at the MBA.  A key goal for this position will be to help fully integrate education for anti-racist business leadership into the MBA curriculum. 

Bard’s MBA program is one of a select group of programs globally that fully embeds a focus on sustainability across all courses. Bard students master the business case for sustainability, understanding how to align financial success with social and environmental goals. Faculty members teach during intensive weekend residencies held once a month in Manhattan; in addition, they teach an online evening session each week between the monthly residencies. The Assistant Dean will be expected to spend at least one day per week on the Bard campus in Annandale-on-Hudson, NY.  Bard is easily accessible by train from New York City. The position thus allows for flexibility in residential location.
