Jennifer McCrickerd

Director of Academic Leader Development

​

Jennifer is a professor of philosophy at Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa where she has taught for 30 years, and for ten years, was Director of the University Honors Program. Beyond teaching core subjects like ethics (including AI Ethics) and political philosophy, she enjoys developing courses on diverse and engaging topics such as dogs, friendship, and college.

 

Her passion lies in understanding and improving the college student experience: how they learn, what ensures their post-graduation success, and how universities can best support their development. This commitment ultimately led her to embrace coaching as a key tool for higher education to fulfill its promise. She is an ACC Certified Coach through the International Coaching Federation (ICF), with additional certifications from the Hudson Institute of Coaching and LifeBound. Jennifer has further enriched her expertise through participation in the Gestalt International Study Center and the Cape Cod Institute.
