Leadership in Higher Education Sean Pratt

James Kouzes and Barry Posner offer a set of leadership skills and practices that will make a significant difference in every area of higher education--faculty, administration, library services, career counseling, auxiliary services, campus safety, and more. Kouzes and Posner tell the leadership story from the inside and move outward, describing it first as a personal journey and then as mobilizing others to want to do things they have never done before. The Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership is the operating system for this adventure. Leadership in Higher Education explains the fundamental principles that support these practices and provides case examples of people in higher education who demonstrate each one. A core theme that weaves its way through all the chapters is that, whether it's one-to-one or one-to-many, leadership is a relationship between those who aspire to lead and those who choose to follow. And right now we need more leaders at every level, and we need them more than ever. We need leaders who can unite us and ignite us. This audiobook lights the way.
