Meet the SPIEC team

Creation of a new 5-year strategic plan that sets the strategic direction and priorities for the Washington State University system is dependent upon the ongoing input and collaboration of the entire University community.

Members of the Strategic Planning and Institutional Effectiveness Council (SPIEC), co-chaired by WSU President Kirk Schulz and Provost Dan Bernardo, are leading the planning process. The SPIEC is guided and counseled by Jean Frankel, a strategic planning consultant, and assisted by a strategic planning support team, to ensure effective and efficient completion and implementation of the plan.

Council members are expected to attend and actively participate in SPIEC meetings, which will occur on a monthly basis, and other SPIEC activities, as appropriate.
