Bio
Mark Fazioli, Ph.D
I am honored to write a recommendation for Dr. Tim Raynor. In 2018, he hired me, and I had the opportunity to serve under his leadership. Dr. Raynor acquired the Department of Continuing and Online Education, which at that time was losing money and had an underperforming team. Dr. Raynor restructured the department, hired new staff, and, through his transformational leadership style and innovative approach, created a highly efficient, profitable department and changed the culture to be one of the best work environments. Dr. Raynor is a strong leader, entrepreneur, educator, and scholar. He knows how to lead people that produce results and success. His professionalism and manner are a leading reason why Dr. Raynor is so successful and admired. His quest for new knowledge keeps his skills cutting-edge. I have had many colleagues through the years, but by far, he stands out as one of the best mentors. Any institution looking for a strong, smart, and charismatic leader who delivers success and brings out the best in people should look no further than Dr. Raynor.

As a mentor and co-worker of mine, Tim is an exceptional strategist and leader in every capacity. He has demonstrated at all levels his ability to build a team through motivation, leadership, and an extremely high level of emotional intelligence. Tim has not only displayed these attributes as an executive director, but also in the classroom as a world-class professor. I will continue to admire his abilities and look forward to seeing him progress even further in the world of academia.
