Note: This belief is in part the basis for the arguments that I've made in my last two books, *Generous Thinking* and *Leading Generously* -- that, in order to create the best possible conditions for success for the work that we are all committed to doing, we have to do it together, and that "together" requires us all to reground ourselves in collaboration rather than competition, in listening to and learning from one another rather than thinking of our differences as barriers to understanding. I don't at all want to suggest that this is easy -- collaboration is hard, listening and learning are hard, and building and supporting diverse teams are hard -- but that's the work I've committed myself to over the last fifteen years, and that's the work that I hope I will be able to keep doing in the college.

Note: Additionally, over the last ten years I've been working with an amazing group of colleagues to build and support open, values-enacted, community-governed platforms and tools for collaboration and communication among scholars, practitioners, instructors, students, and other publics who want to do their crucial work in online and connected ways. Knowledge Commons is housed here at MSU but hosts more than 45,000 users across the disciplines and around the world. It's been funded over the years through 14 external grants from two federal agencies and five private foundations totaling more than $3.4 million dollars. That project has given me a deep understanding of a lot of things, not least that managing both to do the work and to raise the money to do the work (not to mention reporting on spending the money raised to do the work) is a lot, and requires enormous support. I was the recipient of a lot of such support over the years from Bill Hart-Davidson and the rest of the deans team, as well as from the amazing college Research team, and key among my goals over the last few years has been paying that support forward, finding the means to help folks both here in the college and on the Commons do their work.
