GW PROVOST: 4 Sets of Questions
• Globalization• Governance & Policy• Innovation with Interdisciplinary Collaboration• Citizenship & Leadership
Robert David Steele: 4 Sets of Answers
• Open Everything• Eight Tribes, Integrate Everything• Strategic Analytic Model Harmonizes Global / Local Sharing• BE the National University/OSA-MDSC
Globalization• Capitalizing on research all over the world
– Recognize the total fragmentation of knowledge– Do the homework – Elsevier citation analytics
• Preparing students for a global society– Heritage College: ethics, analytics, religious studies– Horizons College: 8 tribes, whole systems solutions
• Disseminating GW research all over the world– Create World Brain Institute, Global Game– Create prototype Center for Public Intelligence
• Restructuring GW as an institution?– Secretary of State to demand Open Source Agency– GW, JFK, Saudis raise funds for Potomac Plaza
Governance & Policy• Translating policy relevance into research
– Policy is out of touch with any model or true costs– BE the national university with the model & facts
• Building a policy-relevant educational experience– Teach the students how to create public intelligence– Teach the students how everything is connected
• Advancing new models of hybrid governance– BE the hub for eight tribes, World Brain, Global Game– Create the open source everything tools & network
• Strengthening GW’s position on policy deliberation– BE the lead university for the Open Source Agency– BE the lead university for the Multinational Decision-
Support Centre
Interdisciplinary Innovation• Sponsored interdisciplinary collaboration
– Do the homework – pay for Elsevier citation analytics– Adopt the model—work on ten high level threats
• Preparing students for an interdisciplinary world– Deeply impress on students the model, true costs– Use online options to connect all courses
• Promoting an interdisciplinary culture– Centralizing hiring at university level, end school silos– Centralize grant applications, harmonize applications
• Enabling interdisciplinary collaboration at GW– Clean-sheet evaluation of all existing buildings and how
used– Leverage the Potomac Plaza building as the prestige
location for University Professors who lead TEAMS
Citizenship & Leadership• Expanding research on citizenship & leadership
– The truth at any cost lowers all other costs– Integrate sciences, religions, & philosophies
• Fostering citizenship & leadership skills– Learn to question authority by discerning the truth– Future-proof the university – walk the walk
• How can GW be a better citizen of DC and USA?– Future-proof the District of Columbia– Be the National University and hub for Smart Nation
• What institutional changes are needed?– Learn how to do Open Space conferences and do many– Commit to Open Everything, adopt these ideas as a whole
REAL-WORLD CHALLENGES
• Fragmentation of knowledge• Missing information• Information pathologies• Excessive reliance on “dumb” IT• Absence of information sharing standards• Absence of shared open analytic tool-kit• Absence of “eight tribes” networking
REAL-WORLD SOLUTIONS• Change the GW mind-set to focus on eight tribes,
bottom-up integrated knowledge, and BE the national university as well as the HUB of the World Brain and Global Game
• Focus all teaching and research on relevance to the ten high-level threats to humanity – use shared information to harmonize policies, tribes, and outcomes
• Off the first PhD on future-oriented hybrid governance that leverages diversity in all forms
