Welcome to Faculty 101, a podcast that offers a listen into the pursuits and perspectives of Husker faculty.

Listen: Faculty 101 with Troy Smith

With the COVID-19 pandemic disrupting normal routines and shifting so many personnel and activities off campus, host Mary Jane Bruce is adapting with a temporary spinoff named Faculty 101: Five Things. True to its name, each episode will ask a faculty member to address five aspects or questions related to a specific topic.

Troy Smith joins the podcast to share what his research has to say about managing and working in times of upheaval. The assistant professor of management explains why consistency is key when contending with change, what managers can gain by getting input from their employees, and how the COVID-19 pandemic could reshape some workplaces forever.

Faculty 101 episodes will be featured here on Nebraska Today, but you can also subscribe via iTunes and Stitcher. Additional podcast delivery systems will be announced as they come online.
