Search Underway for New Yale SOM Dean

President Peter Salovey has appointed a search advisory committee to identify candidates, assisted by the executive search firm Heidrick & Struggles and an alumni consultative committee. 

Yale University has initiated a search for a new dean of the Yale School of Management. 

Edward A. Snyder, who has served as dean since 2011, announced earlier this year that he would step down and return to teaching and research at the end of the 2018-19 academic year.

President Peter Salovey has appointed a search advisory committee, chaired by Andrew Metrick, Janet L. Yellen Professor of Finance and Management, to identify candidates, assisted by the executive search firm Heidrick & Struggles. An alumni consultative committee, chaired by Timothy Collins ’82, CEO and senior managing director of Ripplewood Holdings and chair of the Yale SOM Board of Advisors, and Indra Nooyi ’80, chairman and CEO of PepsiCo, will advise the committee.
