In no other professional field do senior leaders habitually return
to the rank-and-file workforce in the twilight of their careers.
Corporate CEOs rarely conclude their working lives by resuming the
duties of a mid-level account executive; on the verge of
retirement, four-star generals do not return to the infantry. But
in academia former senior leaders often conclude their careers by
reprising the roles and responsibilities of a professor. Until now,
leaders and institutions have been left to navigate these
transitions on their own—often learning hard lessons that might
have been avoided. Stepping Away moves beyond the well-worn
clichés of “stepping down” to examine how senior leadership
role changes impact individuals and the institutions they serve.
Drawn from empirical research involving more than fifty college
presidents, provosts, and deans, this book delivers fresh
understanding of the challenges and opportunities leaders face as
they assume a new place in the social architecture of their campus.
Bridging the gap between theory and practice, Stepping Away
translates research into practical strategies that leaders can use
to make this change successfully, providing guidance about when to
speak up and when to remain quiet, how to develop new
relationships, where to office, whether to apply for new jobs, and
how to use their knowledge and skills to add value to their campus
communities, on-campus and off.
