Welcome to BEATS WORKING, the podcast dedicated to redeeming work—the word, the place, and the way. On the show this week is Eduardo Peñalver, president of Seattle University, giving insight into how to redeem work within the framework of higher education.
Peñalver’s presidency marks a significant new chapter at Seattle U. He is the first non-Jesuit leader in the school’s 133-year history. Host Mark Wright explores the significance of that in this wide-ranging conversation, also covering Peñalver’s career successes, which include being a Rhodes Scholar, clerking at the U.S. Supreme Court, teaching as a law professor, and serving as Dean of the Cornell School of Law.
Peñalver, a western Washington native, reveals the strategies he’s learned to succeed at leading others and the mentors who set examples for him to follow. He also shares what he’s doing to redeem work for faculty and students at Seattle U, one of the nation’s top schools for undergraduate education.
