I am thrilled to share UND Athletics LEADS. Our department’s strategic objectives were developed to envelope into the University’s UND LEADS. As part of our commitment to continuous improvement and alignment with the university’s overarching goals, we have meticulously crafted a strategic vision that encapsulates our department’s mission, priorities, and roadmap for success.
This serves as a guiding light, illuminating the path toward achieving our collective ambitions while nurturing a culture of accountability, growth and development while making sure that our department is as diverse and inclusive as possible. In addition, this plan will assist us in continuing to strive for classroom, competitive and community excellence. It outlines our key focus areas of learning, equity, affinity, discovery and service initiatives.
In crafting this, we analyzed trends in Division I athletics to ensure its relevance, feasibility, and adaptability. It reflects our deep understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing our department, empowering us to navigate complexities with agility and foresight.
By aligning our efforts with the broader organizational strategy, we aim to maximize our contribution to UND’s success while fostering a culture of excellence in all things that we do.
I encourage you to review the attached strategic plan document thoroughly and provide any feedback or insights you may have. Your input is invaluable as we embark on this journey together. Finally, I want to thank our student-athletes, coaches and staff for their continued dedication and support in representing the University of North Dakota and the State of North Dakota in the best light possible at all times.
