"Renew ANU" is a zombie. It is a shuffling corpse, still ambling along in the background, as headlines are dominated by the high-profile resignation of the former vice-chancellor Professor Genevieve Bell .
The Renew ANU zombie still stumbles on, despite renewed scrutiny of the chancellor Julie Bishop .
At this stage, the Renew ANU zombie has no beating heart. It is time to bury it once and for all.
More than 100 people at the ANU are still facing the involuntary loss of their job through Renew ANU, the disastrous consultant-driven change process that has trashed the ANU's culture, reputation, and productivity.
It has also damaged people.
Renew ANU was launched on October 3, 2024 after an online staff Town Hall was called at short notice. Staff morale was already low at this point.
