She explores the challenges faced by academic leaders, the need for a shift from scarcity to abundance, and the role of students as truth tellers in navigating systemic change. Dr. Riddell also imagines a new paradigm for universities, termed 'Hope University', which focuses on co-creation and inclusivity in educational practices.
