This is a great 2-parter, people. The first part is all about how uniquely challenging Higher Ed and other non-tech-first orgs for website strategist and product people. Adam shares his experiences working in higher education and other sectors, where unique and complex Governance structures, diverse stakeholder groups, and entrenched institutional politics create substantial obstacles. You'll hear about how the first big project he did was chaos due to misalignment. In part 2, you'll hear about the magic of stakeholder Alignment, alignment Personas, and clear goals! Hint: the second project came in early and under budget.
