A presidential transition has a major impact on the life of an
institution. Hundreds of presidential transitions take place
annually, and when they are not amicable and carefully
orchestrated, they can scar both the institution and the president.
Sanaghan, Goldstein, and Gaval estimate that more than one-third of
the presidential transitions in higher education are involuntary
and have a negative effect on the institution. This book is
designed to provide assistance to presidents, trustees, faculty,
and other important stakeholder groups and help them avoid the
pitfalls of poorly managed transitions. The authors discuss how,
with proper planning, care, and execution, this presidential
passage can be an opportunity for a transitioning president, and
those who surround him or her, to write a positive chapter in the
campus history. Readers will discover that appropriately addressing
the anxiety that accompanies major transitions_for both those
joining the institution and those already present_is essential.
Dozens of presidents, chancellors, board members, and other senior
executives were interviewed for this book. Each major chapter
includes selected personal observations, from these interviews,
which illustrate the critical issues addressed in the book.
