Dear Carolina Community:

We are pleased to announce that Becci Menghini has been named vice chancellor for Human Resources and Equal Opportunity and Compliance, effective Jan. 2. Becci has served as the interim vice chancellor for Workforce Strategy, Equity and Engagement since May.

The Division of Workforce Strategy, Equity and Engagement will be renamed Human Resources and Equal Opportunity and Compliance. In her new role, Becci will continue to direct the Offices of Human Resources and Equal Opportunity and Compliance. She will also oversee the divisional business office and communications team and the Human Resources information management team. The University Office for Diversity and Inclusion, which was previously part of Workforce Strategy, Equity and Engagement, will now report directly to the provost. We will soon launch a national search for a vice provost for equity and inclusion/chief diversity officer.

Becci came to Carolina in 2015 as senior associate vice chancellor for Workforce Strategy, Equity and Engagement, and has proven to be a strategic partner and adviser to the University’s leadership team; the Board of Trustees; and countless students, faculty and staff. She has helped streamline business processes in human resources to accelerate hiring times, improve operational efficiency and recruit and hire top talent. She has also helped reimagine the University’s organizational structure to meet the needs of our community and initiated several projects aimed at better service delivery, more professional development opportunities for faculty and staff and enhanced training for managers and supervisors.
