Deputy Chief of Staff

The Deputy Chief of Staff is a strategic generalist and the Chief of Staff’s principal backup. The Deputy facilitates presidential engagement readiness and staffs the President at his most consequential engagements, coordinating across offices so that he is prepared and supported, and his commitments are followed through. The Deputy also leads sensitive special projects, staffs key meetings, and keeps institutional priorities moving across the divisions and schools. The Deputy works directly and regularly with the President, including traveling with him, and represents the Chief of Staff and the office as delegated.
