Filled with practical lessons for leadership and change, this book raises awareness of how to tackle topical issues and effectively lead universities through major change.
The contributors to this book are all leaders in their field – senior executives who have successfully led pan-university initiatives. Providing examples of bold initiatives and an analysis of their implementation, this book helps the reader reflect on how they might wish to proceed, authentically, in leading and supporting wide-scale change in the future. Each chapter highlights the power of the narrative of change.
In particular, this second edition demonstrates a change in considering global factors; it:
- Uses a case study approach to examine global higher education institutions.
- Reflects the huge change in the global higher education landscape over the past 10 years.
- Reflects on initiatives from the first edition in terms of how they were scaled up and draws on the advantages and disadvantages of each.
- Includes a conclusive ‘Where to Next’ section that ensures responsiveness and agility to the rapidly changing landscape and flags up a new paradigm for leadership: E4 leadership (engaging, energised, empowering and engaged).
Strategic Leadership of Change in Higher Education is crucial reading for all those involved in leadership and management positions in higher education. With an emphasis on behaviours, alongside passion, ambition and a commitment to shared values as key ingredients to the success of strategic leaders, this book provides expert commentary and global insights. This is a cutting-edge book that will continue to provide higher education leaders and managers with the information necessary to stay ahead of the curve.
