Administrators
You will find the information in this section of interest if:
- You are engaged in management or administration, whether as part of an academic or research role or as an administrator or specialist professional
- You are interested in professional or vocational development for yourself or your staff.
Departmental Administrators may also be interested in the Developing Leadership and Management Practice Programme. This programme aims to develop and integrate participants’ knowledge and skills in management and leadership. It is tailored to the variety of middle-management roles within the university, and emphasizes self-development and the strategic elements of management. Participants are likely to include departmental and divisional administrators and experienced specialist managers in central administration or services, typically at Grades 8 and 9. If you wish to register your interest, or have any questions about the programme, please contact Clare Wakeham.
Personal Development Review (PDR)
The Institute works with individual departments to introduce personal development review (PDR) schemes for academic-related, research and support staff "consistent with Oxford's values and institutional structures". The Institute can help departmental administrators design schemes appropriate to the local context and run briefing and skills training sessions.
If you would like support in updating or re-launching a current scheme; in introducing a new scheme or for further information, please contact Bill Dunn.
