Toxic Management Culture

Pros

Collegiality amongst academic staff is awesome

Cons

Toxic Management Culture: Colin Stirling overseas a cabal of sociopathic academic administrators. Staff are treated like dirt. Academic skills and accomplishments are considered replaceable in all instances; no one is safe. Not even the most accomplished academic staff can avoid the axe if they voice concern over, or draw attention to, the litany of irrational, counterproductive or simply vindictive management decisions that are made by Executive Deans on a regular basis

Lecturer

Pros

Flexibility and autonomy of the role made the job of being a lecturer worthwhile. Contributing to the teaching of undergraduates and postgraduate students.

Cons

Balancing the demands of teaching and research is always the bane of an academic. While there was in place a workload formula, it remained problematic in execution and delivery of equitable distribution of tasks.
