Faculty Leadership Commons

The Faculty Leadership Commons (FLC) represents the Dean’s Leadership-level forum for consultation and exchange. Its main purpose is to facilitate networking, teambuilding and ensure timely communication of important Faculty and University matters with the Faculty’s academic and clinical leaders and administrative core leadership team. The FLC will give members the opportunity to provide informal advice and feedback to the Dean while also providing the Dean with a forum to keep the Faculty’s leadership up-to-date on a variety of topics. The FLC will also provide a forum for formal presentations by FLC members, University representatives, and other invited guests.

The Terms of Reference provide details of the FLC’s composition and other information.
