Abstract

This chapter focuses on various factors requiring changes in higher education leadership, such as societal pressures, availability of financial support, labor market characteristics and expectations for job-ready college graduates, and the tension between institutional processes and the degree to which internal/external stakeholders are involved in decision-making processes. In this light, leadership development has become critically important in creating the necessary cadre of professionals committed to the mission and vision of institutions of higher education they lead. As a clearer focus on effectiveness and differential impact on the emerging leadership skills of participants is still needed, this chapter proposes a theoretical framework infusing andragogical principles into leadership development.
