Leadership in Higher Education: Practices That Make A Difference

The authors of the classic bestseller The Leadership Challenge bring their expertise to higher education, offering five practices that can make any college or university leader into an exemplary leader.

Drawing on the same vital research that formed the foundation of their classic bestseller The Leadership Challenge-more than two million copies sold-Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner offer higher education professionals a set of leadership skills and practices that are available to everyone, not just a charismatic few.

This book is meant for all leaders on campus. Not only academic faculty, but the staff and managers of residential life, career development, student records, admissions, campus safety, information technology, library, counseling and health centers, facilities, alumni relations, and development, and all other organizations on campus. Kouzes and Posner identify Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership(r) and provide case examples of real people who demonstrate each practice: - model the way - inspire a shared vision - challenge the process - enable others to act - encourage the heart

Anyone in higher education who wants to transform values into actions, visions into realities, obstacles into innovations, segments into solidarity, and risks into rewards must read this book.
