Reviews & Statements

"This book about governance and leadership came about because of a project funded by Erasmus +: 'Governance and Academic Leadership of Chinese and European Universities in the Context of Innovation and Internationalization.' The purpose of this project was, in the first place, about strengthening academic leadership in Chinese higher education with conferences, workshops, and more."

– Prof. Manon Kok, Th&ma Hoger Onderwijs, The Netherlands
