Summary:
Foreword by David W. LeslieIn this innovative look at academic
leadership, Jon Wergin argues that it's time to rethink how our
colleges and universities are organized and led. The concept of
leadership in place calls for a shift in attitude about leaders and
leadership from a hierarchical view that academic leadership flows
from a leadership position, to a more lateral view that leadership
roles are available to everyone.The contributors to this book,
academic leaders from diverse sectors of the academy, tell their
stories about leading in place, and each contributes a useful lesson.
The book s final chapter integrates these lessons into an agenda for
what higher education must do to create conditions under which
leadership in place is the norm rather than the exception.Contents
