From One IACBE Member Institution to Another, Dr. Ayodeji B. Arogundade Brings Proven Leadership to the Role
The International Accreditation Council for Business Education (IACBE) is pleased to announce the appointment of Dr. Ayodeji “Ayo” B. Arogundade as the new Secretary for IACBE Region 5 – North Central. Dr. Arogundade, whose career spans decades in higher education and business program accreditation, has been a key figure in advancing academic excellence and innovative outcomes-based assessment across institutions.
Dr. Arogundade most recently assumed the role of Dean and Associate Professor of Business at Dickinson State University in August 2024. Prior to this, he served with distinction at Lewis-Clark State College, thereby marking a significant transition from one IACBE member institution to another. His extensive leadership experience, underscored by his previous roles in academic administration and accreditation processes, uniquely qualifies him to undertake the vital responsibilities of Regional Secretary.
In his new capacity, Dr. Arogundade will be charged with recording and maintaining comprehensive minutes of all business meetings for IACBE Region 5, assisting the vice president and the regional officer team in planning the fall regional conference, and serving as a key liaison between regional members and IACBE headquarters.
Dr. Arogundade’s distinguished academic background—which includes a Ph.D., MBA, and multiple leadership roles—complements his appointment as Regional Secretary. His proven track record in fostering collaboration and enhancing the quality of business education will be instrumental in advancing the goals of IACBE Region 5.
