"Leadership in Place" calls for a shift in attitude about leaders and leadership. It departs from the hierarchical view that academic leadership flows from a leadership position, and instead embraces a more lateral view where leadership roles are available to everyone. It calls for a rethinking of how our colleges and universities are led and organized by discussing the following: Importance of strong academic communities in preserving the integrity of academic programsEmpowerment of part-time faculty by combining adaptive and transformative learning modelsOpportunities for, benefits of, and challenges in collaborative leadershipProblems that can emerge in times of leadership transitions and possible solutionsConcept of leadership as an attribute of the many rather than the few
Advocating for academics to reengage and recommit to their institutions, the book creates an agenda for what higher education must do to create conditions under which leadership in place is the norm rather than the exception.
