VSB’S STRATEGIC PLAN
In tandem and aligned with the University’s Rooted. Restless. Strategic Plan, VSB started with what it values most—the Augustinian Catholic mission and values along with our strong liberal arts core that underpins business fundamentals—to frame our decision-making while inspiring us to do more. We will continue to honor our legacy and build upon it in the coming years. VSB engaged its faculty, staff, students, alumni and other stakeholders in a comprehensive strategic planning process.
The strategic plan spans five years, and three strategic imperatives—areas that must be strengthened for VSB to remain competitive—have been identified:
STUDENT COMPETENCIES Tech, Data and Analytics; Business Communication Skills; Ethics/ Corporate Social Responsibility; and Servant Leadership
