I am pleased to be asked to recommend my colleague Dr. Jalin Johnson for an associate professor promotion at Brandman University. In the six years that I have known Dr. Johnson, I have found her to be remarkably knowledgeable in business and professional studies, as well as brilliant and forward thinking in the arena of ethics. For example, the OCLU 350 ethics course that I have had the opportunity to teach, and one of several that Dr. Johnson has developed, creates a learning opportunity for both the instructor and student that comprises demonstrable theories that present the relevant skills for today’s leaders and ethical challenges. Dr. Johnson’s work on and leadership of the Faculty Professional Development meetings that encompass several regional campuses is not only informative and insightful, but her delightful and warm spirit generates sincere appreciation from all (from otherwise what could be a less favorable meeting). Dr. Johnson’s unsullied academic knowledge is matched only by the depth and breadth of her work on empowerment and leadership. Thus she brings great honesty and credibility to her profession, and will add both richness of mind and high teaching skills to any faculty on which she serves. On a personal level, I describe Jalin in terms of strong qualities. She is remarkably open-minded, willing to see the value in other people’s perspective, and reserves judgment. Jalin is genuine and I know I can all upon her for her honesty and mentorship which I can testify remain an endearing quality.
