An excellent compilation of the concepts, models, and good
practices to develop the contemporary leadership capacity so needed
in a new generation of college leaders... The audience for this
book is any administrator accountable to develop talent and
capacity for facult and staff in the leadership pipeline. With the
admonition that old models of training will not develop leadership
capacities so needed in today's times, Kezar and her authors
present successful models taht have developed women and
professionals of color over the years... Each chapter is well
written, rich in context and detail, well researched with useful
resources, and anchored by direct practical applications. The
chapters are uniformly of high quality. Many students tell me they
usually skip the "preface," but in this book, that would be a big
mistake! This preface is a substantive contribution to the
evolution of leadership development programs and framework for the
argument for the book."-The Review of Higher Education "Adrianna
Kezar breaks new ground in this edited volume that focuses
much-needed attention on the theory and practice of leadership in
higher education. Trenchant analyses by leadership developers and
scholars offer key insights on programmatic innovations that are
responsive to rapidly evolving organizational environments in
American colleges and universities."-Judith Glazer-Raymo, Lecturer,
Department of Higher & Postsecondary Education, Teachers
College, Columbia University The complexity of the decisions that
today's higher education leaders face requires embracing new ways
of thinking about leadership. At a time when the heroic,
controlling, and distant leader of the past has given way to a
focus on teams, collectives and social change, the contributors to
this book ask: What new skills and competencies should leaders and
programs be addressing?
