Leadership matters more than ever, and Reframing Academic
Leadership offers the seminal framework for understanding and
leading in higher education today. PRAISE FOR REFRAMING ACADEMIC
LEADERSHIP 1st ED "Reframing Academic Leadership is the most
comprehensive book on the topic and an excellent source of
knowledge for faculty and managerial leaders in every college and
university. An invaluable resource for students of higher education
leadership!" --MAUREEN SULLIVAN, Past President, American Library
Association and Association of College and Research Libraries
"Reframing Academic Leadership provides a compassionate
understanding of the stresses of leadership in higher education. It
offers insights to those who do not fully appreciate why higher
education is so hard to 'manage' and validation for those entirely
familiar with this world. I recommend it enthusiastically."
--JUDITH BLOCK MCLAUGHLIN, Senior lecturer on education and faculty
chair of the Harvard Seminar for New Presidents and the Harvard
Seminar for Presidential Leadership, Harvard Graduate School of
Education "Bolman and Gallos provide a refreshing view of
leadership essential for those assuming presidencies and other
important leadership positions in higher education. This work is a
bedside reference for aspiring and current leadership in higher
education not only in the U.S. but also abroad." --FERNANCO LEON
GARCIA, President, Sistema CETYS Universidad, Baja California,
Mexico "Bolman and Gallos have written a practical, lucid text that
brings together illustrative vignettes and robust frameworks for
diagnosing and managing colleges and universities. I recommend it
to new and experienced administrators who will routinely confront
difficult people, structures, and cultures in their workplaces."
--CHRISTOPHER MORPHEW, Dean, School of Education, Johns Hopkins
University "Reframing Academic Leadership is filled with real-world
examples from leaders. The book reads like a guide for leading a
chamber music rehearsal where one's role constantly shifts from
star to servant and where multiple answers may be 'right'." --PETER
WHITE, Dean and Professor of Conducting, Conservatory of Music,
University of the Pacific
