Susan Resneck Pierce's cautionary tales and commonsense approach to college management present, in a very entertaining way, the 'dos' and 'don'ts' of effective postsecondary academic leadership. Highly recommended... I am so enthusiastic that I plan to share On Being Presidential with two new university presidents!"—Barbara Young, vice-chair, Sweet Briar College Board of Directors, and two-time appointee to the University of Kentucky Board of Trustees "Susan Pierce provides an insightful guide to the successful presidency, lessons based not on theory but gleaned from meaningful experiences.

Curris, president emeritus, American Association of State Colleges and Universities

Download or read book Leaders in the Crucible written by Stephen J. Nelson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2000-08-30 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regardless of the pressures and problems confronting colleges and universities today, they can ill afford to assume that the only essential qualities of those chosen to be presidents are their abilities to be sound managers, institutional developers, and public relations experts. Nelson argues that college presidents must possess the capacity to use the presidential pulpit as moral leaders. Presidents are profiled as leaders who shape student character, lead campus communities, and are in the forefront of issues critical to education. From this vantage point, we can better examine the moral beliefs at the core of colleges and universities, understand and appreciate moral leadership in higher education, and consider the foundations and future of the presidency.

Book excerpt: The role of the college and university president is examined, including myths, expectations, and realities of the presidency. Data are gathered from research studies, interviews with many presidents, and the author's personal experience as a college president. Among the issues discussed are presidential selection and evaluation, the relationship between the governing board and the president, problems of leadership in multicampus systems, collective bargaining, and the personal side of the presidency. Specific chapters deal with these issues as well as: the college presidency--yesterday and today; the new college president; the president and governance; assessing presidential effectiveness; and the president and educational leadership. Several requirements for effective leadership for higher education are offered such as political effectiveness, visible leadership, the ability to teach the public, and a sense of service to the human spirit.
