The usual requirements of a tenured faculty are essential, that is: scholarship and research, service, and teaching.

The leadership position will provide opportunities for others beyond your department to see and appreciate your abilities. I would suggest that you also take some courses in higher education administration to provide a historical context, a theoretical framework, and an overview of the role of dean.
