You’re not feeling the vibe of the place.”This managerial perspective has proved critical in her transition from the central administration to FAS. With her extensive administrative experience in various hubs throughout Harvard, Gorodentsev said she emphasizes on-the-ground communication to ensure that information not only flows from top administrators to departments, but also the other...
