The book provides case studies for reflection in a broad array of
situations that that provosts must deal with. The short scenarios
and case studies are useful for thinking about problems or issues
in advance and considering options that might be available. When
analyzing circumstances, readers may find it useful to identify
setting aspects that apply to their institutions. While there are
differences in involvement, actions and outcomes, each case
provides multiple connectors and situational insights for a
provost. The book presents tips on deciding to become a provost,
interviewing successfully, and managing the "honeymoon" period in a
new position. It addresses challenges unique to the provost, such
as balancing academic and institutional priorities or leading from
a perspective of diversity. Questions on assessing the "fit" of
your team and creating a shared vision of academic affairs are
probed through example. Collaborations across other divisions of
the university and the provost's role in shared governance guide
the reader to examine how to lead change. Leading change is having
a vision for the academy and provosts are agents of power outside
of their own institutions who shape the dialog of future higher
education.
