Through in-depth interviews with the presidents of major Chinese
universities, this text explores the changing demands on leaders in
Higher Education in the wake of globalization, and develops a
contemporary model of Hybrid Leadership. Glocalization and the
Development of a Hybrid Leadership Model examines the leadership
philosophies and practices of Chinese university presidents and
presents new insights and perspectives on the meaning and practice
of leadership in a global era. Drawing on data from a unique
methodological process which integrates Western and Eastern
approaches, chapters foreground the experiences of leaders in
higher education to demonstrate how they perceive and balance
diverse and potentially conflicting local and global demands, and
ensure effective leadership by combining leadership philosophies
and practices from local and global contexts. Ultimately, this
informs the development of new model of leadership characterized by
the hybridization of the global and local at the contextual and
personal levels, and marked by global competency, multiple cultural
and sectoral mindsets, and geographically adaptable skill sets.
Challenging and enriching the existing theories of leadership for
higher education, this text will be of interest to scholars,
post-graduate students and academics in the fields of educational
leadership, international and comparative education, higher
education, and leadership studies. It will also be of interests to
the practitioners of leadership in general and higher education
leadership in particular.
