What can submariners that go on tours for months at a time without seeing daylight teach us about team formation? It turns out, a lot.

Learn about the forming - storming - norming - performing framework to team formation and team performance. It is a framework that has helped the speaker think through, and lead teams, through many different types of workplaces from Boeing to Arizona State University to Stanford University.

Not Sponsored Research and Not Philanthropy: the Corporate Affiliates Program

Monday, October 21, 2024, 1 - 2 p.m. ET

Moderator:

• Joseph Huang, Executive Director of Strategic Research Initiatives, Stanford Computer Science

• Will Dyer, Director, Corporate Affiliates Program, University of California, San Diego

At many universities there are tensions between the type of money that faculty want to receive the most for their research (unrestricted gifts) and what companies and universities want to give (typically corporate sponsored research). There is another broad bucket of funding mechanism called "other" or "consortium" or "corporate affiliate programs".

Join us as we discuss the corporate affiliate programs model from Stanford University, University of California San Diego, and Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
