Transforming Leadership Pathways for Humanities Professionals in
Higher Education includes thirteen essays from a variety of
contributors investigating how humanities professionals grapple
with the opportunities and challenges of leadership positions.
Written by insiders sharing their lived experience, this collection
provides an authentic look at the multiple roles humanities
specialists play, as well as offering strategies for professional
growth, sustenance, and satisfaction. The collection also considers
the relationship between disciplinary areas of study, academic
training, and the valuable skill sets and habits of mind that serve
higher education leaders.While Transforming Leadership Pathways
emphasizes that a leadership route in higher education can be a
welcome and positive professional move for many humanities
scholars, the volume also acknowledges the issues that arise when
faculty take on administrative positions while otherwise
marginalized on campus because of faculty status, rank, or personal
identity. This collection demystifies the path into higher
education administration and argues that humanities scholars are
uniquely qualified for such roles. Empathetic, deeply analytical,
attuned to historical context, and trained in communication,
teachers and scholars who hail from humanities disciplines often
find themselves well-suited to the demands of complex academic
leadership in today's colleges and universities.
