Dean's Message

Dear Colleagues,

It gives me true pleasure to complete the first year of the Deanship of College of Management in National University of Kaohsiung.  Again, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of your kind supports.

Looking back on our glorious achievement in College of Management last year, we have seven faculties promoted to the next ranks.  We have numerous faculties and students received NSC, MOE, NUK, and national competition awards.  We have faculties received the NUK “teacher of the year” and “mentor of the year” awards. The Department of Information Management and the College of Management both ranked number one, two years in a roll, in the NUK university-level International Exchange and Cooperation competition.  The list is endless.  But it only reflects some of our joint and diligent efforts, and deserves our full-hearted recognitions.

Like many of our colleagues, we take opportunities of summer break to travel and explore. This summer, I have two inspiring trips to share with you. Together with four faculties from the Department of Information Management (also two colleagues from National Tsing-Hwa University and National Taiwan Normal University), we traveled to University of Salamanca in Spain. Our main objectives were to present papers and introduced NUK as the host of next year’s International Conference of Knowledge Management in Organizations. But we learned more than that. The University of Salamanca is the oldest university in Spain and the third oldest in Europe, with a history of 800 years. However, it surprises me that it does not look old at all. The University not only preserves its national heritage but also equipped with modern facility. I suddenly wonder. NUK is only twelve year old. Are we aimed and ready to last for 800 years? Maybe we should.

Another trip is more fun. Like every year, I have to take my family for a short vacation. This time, under requests from my young kids and my wife, we took a sweet chocolate vacation – the Hershey Park in Pennsylvania, USA. It supposed to be just thrilling rollercoaster and water rides. But it turned out to be more than that. The free tour, provided by the company, of introducing how Hershey Company makes chocolates turn out to be more than making profits.  The tour starts with “Building a company, building a town, and building a dream”.  I thought Hershey is just a company making chocolates. Obviously, it is NOT. They have a “DREAM”.  Do we have a dream in NUK? Maybe we have.  Let’s share.

This is a new academic year with a new university president.  We have had a fruitful past year, and actually 12 years. Let’s move on and up, under the new leadership. Let’s enjoy making our dream even better.

 

Again, I appreciate all your trusted supports.

Dear Colleagues,

It gives me great honor and pleasure to serve as the third Dean of College of Management in National University of Kaohsiung.  I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of your kind supports and, in particular, the two former Deans for their great establishment.

There are many mission objectives in College of Management that has been well discussed and stated before, clearly and loudly.  They exist in many forms.  However, the bottom line is “How to make us better!”  It could be a complex task or, on the other hand, it could be simplified.  I always like simple approaches.

Recently, we had a trip to visit upstate New York – Syracuse, Ithaca, and Corning area.  Built on the hilly cross-road town in middle New York State, Syracuse University has developed itself into an internationally known university, with a NCAA champion basketball team.  The conference we attended was organized by an engineering department but Whitman School of Management was chosen as the conference venue.  One simple reason is that the school of management has the best facilities to host an international conference in the University.  It is special.

The Cornell University remains its prestige and elegance, just like my first visit about 30 years ago.  It is a campus near nowhere, only next to one of the Finger Lakes – Cayuga Lake.  The first university president Andrew Dickson White was a close friend of the founder Ezra Cornell.  Together, working as a team and sharing with a dream, they built a world class top-ranked institution far from crowded New York City.  It just needs a good team work to start with.

Located in an even more remote area, Corning.  Another world class center has been built.  It is one of its kinds in the USA and the world.  They make very simple products – glasses, light bulb and space shuttle ceramics, etc.  The technology they developed greatly impact human life and recent history.  They are really special.  It doesn’t matter where they are located.

Surprisingly, this trip happens to reflect my personal goals for working in College of Management as well.  I would like to nourish an environment that can better host international conferences, right at College of Management.  To maintain competitiveness, I would like to vocal a simple “123” goal – one research/teaching-related project, two journal papers and three conference papers publication, from each faulty in each year.  It might be ambitious, depending on how you look at it, but together it will make a bang.

“Stay Hungary, Stay Foolish” – as Steve Jobs deliver his commencement speech in Stanford University a few years back.  We are facing budget cuts and limited resources.  Let’s work deep and hard to lay down solid foundation now.  And the dots will be connected and paid off in the future.  In fact, it just takes specialty and team works.

Again, I appreciate all your trusted supports.
