Ep. 107: UWGB Chancellor Michael Alexander

The Northeast Wisconsin Manufacturing Alliance, led by podcast co-host Ann Franz, celebrates its 20th anniversary this year and makes a big change by moving to the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay. In that spirit, Dr. Michael Alexander, chancellor of UWGB since May 2020, joins Ann and special guest co-host Jen Fietz of Stoke RGA on this week's episode to talk about his five-plus years leading the institution, the challenges and revelations of COVID, how higher education is evolving, UWGB's exceptional enrolllment growth in the face of demographic challenges, and why UWGB is a good fit to the new host institution of NEWMA. Thank you to Stoke RGA for sponsoring this episode, and all of our 2026 episodes of NEW Manufacturing Insights.
