Chester Haskell, a former administrator at Harvard University, has been named dean of the Marshall Goldsmith School of Management & Leadership at Alliant International University in Scripps Ranch.

“Getting someone with Chet’s background is a huge plus for Alliant, particularly at a time when considerable work is under way to sharpen the strategic focus of the Management School,” Russ Newman, provost of the university, said in a prepared statement.

Alliant is an accredited, nonprofit institution. It is headquartered in San Diego and San Francisco, with additional campuses around the state and in Mexico City.
