Beskrivning

This book provides a study of diverse leadership development through the extraordinary journeys of ten retired presidents and chancellors who have left an indelible impact on higher education.Representing a rich multicultural background, each chapter tells a personal story of transformation and triumph, highlighting the various, non-traditional paths to senior leadership. Hailing from both private and public, two- and four-year institutions across the United States, these trailblazers showcase that excellence knows no bounds. Contributors reflect on the struggles and engagements with racialized ethnic realities and growing awareness of gender inequities. Discussion questions supply rich ground for meaningful engagement in book clubs, leadership classes, workshops, and institutes, prompting readers to plumb the depths of their own experiences in confronting justice, equity, and inclusion.Filled with captivating narratives touching on the common threads of shared values and invaluable life lessons that weave through diverse experiences, this book is a testament to the power of inspiration and motivation for those considering or dismissing their aspirations to achieve leadership roles in higher education.

"Career Journeys of Diverse Leaders in Higher Education is an inspiring and insightful collection of essays. Filled with humor and wisdom, the individual chapters tell the life stories of a diverse group of presidents and chancellors who charted unusual paths to leadership and brought with them the vision that was the fruit of their experience. At a moment when diversity has become an issue of political controversy, this volume shows the benefits and values it can bring to our colleges and universities."Dr. Carroll Christ, Chancellor, UC Berkeley, USA
