Griffith U’s restructure process runs so discretely (yesterday’s issue) that another proposal is released without much attention, to change leadership and management in library and learning services But a learned reader advises that the four managers whose jobs will go if the plan proceeds certainy noticed it. Yes there are four new jobs they might get, but three are at a lower paygrade.

Griffith manages to keep things calm by sticking to process. CMM suspects Jane Banney has something to do with this. Ms Banney was well-regarded as HR director of the University of Queensland and her decision last year not to renew her contract was widely lamented (CMM May 30 2017). She is now at Griffith U directing the student-school administrative review.
