Many colleges/universities, their professors, and their students
are waking up to the question: "how can we transform our
institution to meet the needs of today's professors and students?"
This book offers real-life depictions of how colleges and
universities, often mired in calcified practices, beliefs, and
aspirations are remaking their approach to Leadership &
Identity - mid-flight - by confronting complacency and building new
kinds of futuristic and humanistic programs and practices. It
offers thought-provoking and instructive insights into the
personalities and policies that enhance, or detract from,
institutional evolution and provides practical insights into key
levers for targeted, transformational growth. Chapter authors
present dynamic case studies from 6 institutions in 5 states along
with touching interviews that provide insights about being a change
agent and impacting institutional change. Probing questions are
offered to readers along with a unique worksheet designed to
intentionally promote new light bulb moments at one's own
college/university. This book offers thought-provoking and
instructive insights into the personalities and policies that
enhance, or detract from, institutional evolution and provides
practical insights into key levers for targeted, transformational
growth. Each case study includes information about the Background
for the Change Initiative, the Change Initiative Itself, Challenges
& Successes, and Lessons Learned.
