Abstract
When facing budget constraints, securing funding for positions without a direct connection to student success is difficult. In this short talk, you’ll hear how a management team successfully advocated for behind-the-scenes positions by “shooting for the moon and aligning the stars” with approaches that can be tailored to your context.
