Chairman Burnout And Productivity: An Inverse Relationship, Robert N. Bostrom Aug 1984

Chairman Burnout And Productivity: An Inverse Relationship, Robert N. Bostrom

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

Chairperson burnout is examined as a problem created by role ambiguity, high administrative expectations, limited authority, and reduced access to rewarding faculty activities.

The article also considers whether continued research productivity may help chairpersons preserve a faculty identity and resist burnout. By linking administrative strain to productivity, role conflict, and professional recognition, …

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

It emphasizes the role of a single accountable leader in drama department administration, especially where production, pedagogy, …
