  • The Fourth Report of Senior Pay and Perks in UK Universities History This
    Transparency at the top? The fourth report of senior pay and perks in UK universities History This is the fourth report on pay and perks at the top of British higher education institutions (HEIs) to be published by the University and College Union (UCU). It forms part of the union’s ongoing campaign for greater transparency in higher education, including the rationale behind senior pay rises. UCU submitted a Freedom of Information (FoI) request to 158 HEIs in October 2017. This followed similar requests submitted in 2016, 2015 and 2014. All requests were designed to shine a light on the arbitrary nature of senior pay and perks in universities, and support the union’s call for reform. The basis for this report The FoI request that forms the basis of this report was sent to 158 (HEIs). It requested details of vice-chancellors’ (or head of institution if known by a different title) salaries and those of other senior post-holders earning over £100,000 at the institution during the academic year of 2016/17 (1 August 2016 to 31 July 2017). It also asked for details of flights, spending on hotels, spending on expenses and if the vice-chancellor was provided with accommodation by the university. Finally, we requested to know whether or not the vice-chancellor was a member of the remuneration committee, and requested a copy of the most recently ratified minutes of the institution’s remuneration committee. Variety of responses The questions on expenditure on flights, hotels, expenses and accommodation for vice-chancellors elicited a huge variation in responses with many institutions deploying exemptions under the Freedom of Information Act to avoid providing data.

  • Corporate Reputation and Competitiveness
    Corporate Reputation and Competitiveness Reputation is at the heart of a company’s success. This unique book, from four of the world leaders in reputation research, reveals the very latest thinking about how organ- izations can improve, whether they are in the public, commercial or not-for-profit sector. The philosophy is to match the external (customer) perception of the organization and what they value, to the internal (customer-facing employee) perception and their organ- izational values. Only when these are ‘harmonized’ can the firm be truly competitive. Corporate Reputation and Competitiveness takes the subject of Reputation Management further than any previous text. It covers some familiar ground: dealing with the media, crisis management, the use of logos and other aspects of corporate identity. But it also argues for Reputation Management to be seen as a way of managing the long-term strat- egy of an organization. It presents a new approach to measuring reputation, one that relies on surveying customers and employees on their view of the corporate character. It carries detailed results of studies showing the interaction of customer–employee per- spectives and how and why customer views influence commercial performance. The book introduces the Corporate Reputation Chain – the potential to link staff and customer satisfaction via the organization’s reputation, and to the Corporate Personality Scale – a way of measuring what customers and staff feel about the organization itself. Detailed case studies from a variety of different companies and sectors reveal the prac- tice of Reputation Management. Corporate Reputation and Competitiveness is intended to be useful to both managers and students on postgraduate courses.

It is a task that has taken just over a year and seen my colleagues and me travelling the length and breadth of Scotland. It has been very hard work – but also very rewarding. Many of the issues are complex, but at the heart of this is our desire to find ways to help improve the lives of the people of Scotland. The reward has been in meeting so many people and discussing the issues with them – at formal evidence sessions, at informal meetings, and at engagement events across the country.

  • Glasgow University Honorary Doctor of Science Degree
    Glasgow University Honorary Degree of Doctor of Science 2 July 2013 Roger Crofts Statement by the Chancellor Sir Kenneth Calman DISCE DOCE – learn and teach. And this is my charge to you today. While you might not want to do it all again as Livingstone suggested he might, you don’t or shouldn’t ever stop learning! Professor Crofts, our honorary graduate of today is surely a prime example of this sense of continuous endeavour. Some of you will know the famous quote from Mahatma Gandhi: 'Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever'. Oration for Roger Crofts by Professor Anne Anderson, Head of College of Social Science Chancellor, by the authority of the Senate, I present to you this person on whom the Senate desires you to confer the honorary degree of Doctor of Science: Roger Crofts. Roger Crofts was born in Leicester on the 17 th January 1944. He attended Hinckley Grammar School before graduating in 1965 with a degree in Geography from Liverpool University, going on to gain a Postgraduate Certificate in Education from the University of Leicester in 1996. In 1970 he gained the degree of M Litt from the University of Aberdeen for a thesis on ‘Coastal processes and evolution around St Cyrus’. After a brief sojourn as Research Fellow with the British Geomorphological Research Group at the University of London in the early 1970s, he made Scotland his home – and the focus of his wide-ranging professional achievements. Roger’s path has been to work in the public sector, chiefly as a Government adviser and administrator and as the leader of a major public body.
