Johnson Akinleye, Ph.D., became the 12th Chancellor of North Carolina Central University in 2017. NCCU is a Historically Black College and University based in Durham, North Carolina.

Mr Akinleye’s platform, The Eagle Promise, is a pledge to ensure resources are available to the 8,200 NCCU students to support their academic journey with the goal of strengthening their candidacy for the job market and graduate and professional school. It also endeavours to provide a socially and globally engaged experience through local, national and international opportunities on and off campus.

Today, while these institutions-types still carry the designation of HBCUs, most of them, including NCCU, are very diverse and attract students of all races and ethnicities, and international countries. HBCUs are institutions of excellence that are more than capable of competing with other colleges and universities around the world. NCCU, of note, has produced many leaders in various fields who are doing very important work here and abroad.

PT: Could you give your reflections on leadership? What is your philosophy of leadership and what are some of the challenges?
