Cultivating Great Leaders: A Stanford Priority

Stanford recognizes our greatest assets are our people. That’s why University Human Resources, with the support of the University Cabinet, sponsors several leadership development programs to cultivate and nurture the skills of employees who manage and lead others.
Sneak Peek: New Administrative Guide Website Coming Soon

The website that houses the university's administrative guidelines is being redesigned, with the new Administrative Guide website set to launch this summer. University Human Resources, in partnership with Stanford Web Services, is taking the decades-old site and increasing its usability and visual appeal through a new search function, a new numbering system, and a fresh design.
