Description
Book SynopsisRole of Leaders in Managing Higher Education highlights the importance of leaders in educational institutions. Showcasing a richly diverse authorship, the collection discusses the autonomy of faculty members based on bonds created through ethics, the style of leadership, and the concept of democracy and social justice.
Emphasizing that higher educational institutions need to look beyond regular extrinsic motivators to ensure employee engagement to mentor students effectively, the chapters also explore the concept of the glass ceiling and regressive cultures that poses impediments to women as leaders in universities and other educational institutions.
Trade Review‘Leadership is a recurring theme in higher education, thus paving the way for various perspectives and findings. This book examines pioneering research on diverse approaches to leadership, enhanced global perspectives, and the stereotypical barriers surrounding the role of leaders to help understand modern-day educational challenges across continents. This book is essential for all learned individuals in higher educational institutions (HEIs) and educational professionals engaged in policymaking and leadership development.’
