Topics : ACERT, Events, Opportunities, Pedagogy
ACERT, in collaboration with the School of Education, is thrilled to host an evening conversation with James Rhee, author of red helicopter—a Parable for Our Times: Lead Change with Kindness (Plus a Little Math). 
In red helicopter, James Rhee reflects on leadership, change, and decision-making through a human-centered framework for business and personal success. The book has sparked conversation across industries about what it means to lead responsibly while navigating complex institutional and organizational challenges.
This event invites members of the Hunter community to engage directly with Rhee’s work and consider how its themes connect to teaching, learning, and leadership in higher education. The conversation will center on shared reflection and dialogue rather than formal presentation.
