Benchmarking Succession Planning & Executive Development In Higher Education, Jonathon Clunies
Benchmarking Succession Planning & Executive Development In Higher Education, Jonathon Clunies
Academic Leadership: The Online Journal
Higher education has historically been slow to adopt many corporate management processes. Succession planning is an especially difficult concept to apply in academia due to dramatic cultural differences between the boardroom and the campus. College and universities often have complex and sometimes bureaucratic procedures for hiring compared with many business corporations (Rosse & Levin, 2003). In a tightening economic and growing competitive climate, innovative colleges and universities are re-examining whether succession planning, coupled with executive development, could be adapted for more cost effective transitions of power and authority.
Faculty Learning Communities And Teaching Portfolios As A Mentoring Model, Andrea C. Wade
Faculty Learning Communities And Teaching Portfolios As A Mentoring Model, Andrea C. Wade
Academic Leadership: The Online Journal
Beginning a career in college or university teaching can be a terrifying exercise in trial and error. Unlike elementary and secondary school teachers, many college faculty members begin their teaching careers with little or no formal preparation in pedagogy. Despite being well-versed in the content discipline, faculty members in their first few semesters of teaching often lack access to the kind of frequent assessment and mentoring that would shorten the learning curve and enhance the experience for both instructor and student.

Engaged, But Not Heroic, Academic Leadership, John B. Bennett
Engaged, But Not Heroic, Academic Leadership, John B. Bennett
Academic Leadership: The Online Journal
Over the years, I have explored leadership challenges faced by department chairpersons and school deans. In this essay I reflect on some findings, noting that they also apply to other educational leaders such as faculty senate members and student affairs officers. Most mid-level leaders struggle with the tradition of defining leadership in terms of individualistic values and mythologies of seeing the leader in terms of the individualistic, heroic cowboy of the Western film and novel. Then I examine the position of institutional president. Here too some leaders aim to be heroic figures, like the fabled cowboy. Almost inevitably, their behaviors …

Four Dimensions Of Leadership In The Problem-Solving Of Education Deans, Antonia Donofrio
Four Dimensions Of Leadership In The Problem-Solving Of Education Deans, Antonia Donofrio
Academic Leadership: The Online Journal
This study links personal attributes of deans of schools and colleges of education to the problem solving contexts in which they make decisions that affect the programs they serve. We describe the mix of intellect, emotion, social acumen, and moral attributes that deans draw upon when they respond to vignettes that capture the multifaceted nature of problem solving in their positions. This study is a continuation of research that attempts to identify characteristics of deans of education who have survived in their role. This is an important issue, as schools and colleges report difficulty in identifying deans who can meet …
