The Quantum University begins with an analysis of the current state
of higher education organizational structure and leadership based
on classical scientific approaches. It then focuses briefly why the
classical approaches are inappropriate for human organization, such
as universities. From this baseline, the book shares descriptions
of quantum physics, ecology, chaos theory, and other newer
sciences. These sciences provide us important lessons for how we
run our universities. These new sciences are a much cleaner fit and
metaphor for our institutional structures and leadership models.
The Quantum University finishes with a thorough investigation of
what a new university structure would look like and the type of
leadership it would need. Each chapter is accompanied with a guest
essay written by different practitioners from across the nation. In
addition, each chapter shares a fictitious story of "Leslie." She
is a new board of trustee member and struggles with her leadership
role. By the end of the book, her insights have provided a new
direction not only for herself, but also for the university.
