FROM THE STAFF ASSOCIATION

The UC San Diego Staff Association and Campus Human Resources invite you to Cabinet Conversations, a series of conversations with cabinet members via Zoom.
Cabinet Conversations is a series of conversations with cabinet members designed to provide staff the opportunity to get to know our campus leaders on a more personal level and hear what leaders have to say about important topics impacting our campus. As part of the Staff Association's strategic plan, these sessions have been developed per requests in the following campaigns: the UC San Diego Staff at Work survey, the Council of UC Staff Assemblies Engagement Survey, and the UC San Diego Idea Wave campaign.
Our next Cabinet Conversation, scheduled for Tuesday, March 30th, from 10–10:45 a.m., is with Anne Buckley, Chief Communications and Marketing Officer. In her role as UC San Diego’s Chief Communications and Marketing Officer (CCMO), Anne provides executive-level leadership and vision for the university’s comprehensive suite of communications and marketing efforts. She oversees University Communications, Creative Services, the communications and marketing functions for Health Sciences and Athletics, and partners with UC San Diego Health, Scripps Institution of Oceanography, Advancement and Admissions.
