The bureaucratic burden combined with our complex organizational structure at UC Berkeley can make it difficult to navigate and be efficient. This cross functional task force was created by the EVCP to advise on one of his highest priorities: reducing burden and improving people’s ability to navigate UC Berkeley. Making these changes for faculty, staff, and students will boost morale and free up time, allowing people to devote more energy to activities that directly benefit our educational, research, and public service missions. Please send any questions about the taskforce or suggestions for process improvements to evcp@berkeley.edu(link sends e-mail).
