<p><span>Position: </span><span>Director of Office of Strategy, Institutional Performance & Emerging Technology</span><br></p><br>
<p><span>Classification:</span> Director Level</p><br>
<p><span>Reports To:</span> President</p><br> <p><span>About The American International University</span></p><br>
<p>American International University (AIU) is a private institution in Kuwait, founded in 2019, offering undergraduate programs in Engineering, Architecture and Design, Business Administration, Arts and Sciences, and Education, delivered in English on the American model of higher education. AIU serves a community of over 3,000 students and is executing the RISE Strategy 2026–2030 a five-year institutional transformation anchored in research development, WSCUC international accreditation, student success, and community engagement.</p><br>
<p>A strategy without execution discipline is a wish list. The Office of Strategy, Institutional Performance & Emerging Technology exists to ensure that AIU's ambitions documented in the RISE Strategy, approved by the Board of Trustees, and communicated to every stakeholder are operationalized, tracked, adjusted when evidence demands it, and delivered on time. The Director of this office is the President's closest strategic partner and AIU's institutional accountability mechanism.</p><br>
<p>For more information, visit: www.aiu.edu.kw</p><br> <p><span>Department Profile</span></p><br>
<p>The <span>Office of Strategy, Institutional Performance & Emerging Technology</span> operates as a direct extension of the President's Office, serving as the institutional coordination and performance intelligence function that supports the execution of AIU's strategic priorities. Rather than functioning as a traditional planning department, the Office ensures that institutional strategy is translated into measurable outcomes through performance management, executive reporting, and strategic technology evaluation. The Office owns three interconnected responsibilities that together strengthen AIU's institutional effectiveness:</p><br>
<ol>
<li><span>Strategy & Institutional Performance:</span> Leading the RISE Strategy execution cycle, institutional KPI monitoring, quarterly performance reporting, Board reporting, annual strategy review, and continuous improvement of AIU's institutional performance management framework using the Balanced Scorecard methodology.</li>
<li>Emergent Technology Intelligence: <br>Scouting, evaluating, and piloting emerging technologies relevant to AIU's academic and administrative operations functioning as an innovation incubator that identifies what is ready for institutional adoption before the CIO integrates it at scale.</li>
<li><span>Strategic Project Alignment:</span> Coordinating with the University's existing PMO and Special Projects structure to monitor the strategic alignment and progress of major institutional initiatives, ensuring the President receives timely updates on projects that materially affect strategic objectives.</li>
</ol> <p><span>Scope of Work</span></p><br>
<p>The Director, Office of Strategy, Institutional Performance & Emerging Technology carries three complementary mandates that reinforce one another. Institutional strategy provides direction, performance management measures progress, and emerging technology enables innovation that supports AIU's long-term strategic priorities. The Director ensures these three functions operate in alignment to support informed executive decision-making.</p><br> <p><span>Key Responsibilities</span></p><br> <p>1. RISE Strategy Execution and Balanced Scorecard Management</p><br>
<ul>
<li>Own the AIU RISE Strategy 2026–2030 execution cycle translating Board-approved strategic objectives into annual operating plans, quarterly milestones, and individual VP and Dean accountability commitments</li>
<li>Design, maintain, and continuously improve AIU's Balanced Scorecard the institutional performance management framework that cascades RISE Strategy KPIs from institutional level through school, department, and individual levels ensuring that every function can see how its work connects to the strategy</li>
<li>Conduct quarterly strategy performance reviews with each VP reviewing KPI progress, identifying risks to delivery, proposing course corrections, and escalating material issues to the President with recommended responses</li>
<li>Prepare the Annual Strategic Progress Report the principal annual document presented to the Board of Trustees each November synthesizing Balanced Scorecard data, institutional KPI achievements, variance explanations, and the following year's adjusted priorities into a clear, evidence-based narrative for Board review</li>
<li>Manage the annual strategic planning calendar coordinating the February environmental scan, April-May VP planning submissions, June-July budget-strategy alignment, September Board approval, and November Board progress review ensuring that planning is a continuous cycle rather than an annual event</li>
<li>Maintain the RISE Strategy risk register identifying strategic risks, assessing likelihood and impact, tracking mitigation actions, and reporting to the President and Board Audit & Risk Committee quarterly</li>
<li>Coordinate with the Institutional Research Office to ensure that all Balanced Scorecard data is sourced from verified institutional systems no KPI reported to the Board may be based on unverified or manually assembled data.</li>
</ul> <p>2. Emergent Technology Intelligence and Innovation Piloting</p><br>
<ul>
<li>Lead AIU's horizon scanning function systematically monitoring emerging technologies relevant to higher education (generative AI, adaptive learning systems, learning analytics, spatial computing, research tools) and producing quarterly Technology Intelligence Briefings for the President and Senior Leadership Team</li>

Pilots are time-bounded, evidence-evaluated, and documented for institutional learning regardless of outcome</li>
<li>Coordinate with the CIO to ensure that emergent technology intelligence flows effectively between the scouting function (this Office) and the operational integration function (CIO/Digital Transformation Office) the Director scouts and pilots; the CIO scales and operates</li>
