Download or read book Presidential Transitions written by Patrick H. Sanaghan and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 2009-11-16 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A presidential transition has a major impact on the life of an institution. Hundreds of presidential transitions take place annually, and when they are not amicable and carefully orchestrated, they can scar both the institution and the president. Sanaghan, Goldstein, and Gaval estimate that more than one-third of the presidential transitions in higher education are involuntary and have a negative effect on the institution. This book is designed to provide assistance to presidents, trustees, faculty, and other important stakeholder groups and help them avoid the pitfalls of poorly managed transitions. The authors discuss how, with proper planning, care, and execution, this presidential passage can be an opportunity for a transitioning president, and those who surround him or her, to write a positive chapter in the campus history. Readers will discover that appropriately addressing the anxiety that accompanies major transitions_for both those joining the institution and those already present_is essential. Dozens of presidents, chancellors, board members, and other senior executives were interviewed for this book. Each major chapter includes selected personal observations, from these interviews, which illustrate the critical issues addressed in the book.

Book excerpt: Why so many abrupt presidential exits? And how can we prevent them? There are hundreds of presidential transitions taking place every year, but many are doomed to derail early. Why is this? Often, it's because attention is paid only to the initial hire and transition. Though the search process is important in selecting a new president, it is merely one component in a larger integration process that will make or break a presidential tenure. If we are to prevent presidential derailments, then the integration needs to be explicit, strategic, well-executed, and monitored and owned by campus leaders, especially by the governing board. Drawing on research into hundreds of presidential transitions, filled with strategies that have been tested at colleges and universities, and written by a leading leadership consultant with contributions from former and current presidents, From Presidential Transition to Integration provides an in-depth handbook to setting up a new presidency for success. It is a must-read for aspiring presidents, boards, and executive search and transition committees.

Book excerpt: This book, published by the American Association of Community Colleges, contains valuable information about the nation's community college presidents. The authors provide a comprehensive profile of these leaders, highlighting different characteristics most presidents hold in common as well as important differences that emerge when data are cross-tabulated according to age, gender, and race. The findings on the risk and stress levels of the presidency could be used to encourage (or discourage) interested individuals to pursue the presidency as a career choice, and could be used by leadership training institutes to advise students about career choices and chances of success. The book contains a foreword by David R. Pierce, and chapters include: (1) "The State of the Presidency"; (2) "Family Background"; (3) "Pathways to the Presidency"; (4) "Assuming the Presidency: Routines and Relationships"; (5) "On the Job: Worldviews and Aspirations"; (6) "Views from the Trenches: Seven Presidents Speak Out"; (7) "Looking to the Future: More Views from the Trenches"; and (8) "The Presidency in Transition."

Download or read book Leadership Transitions The New College President written by Judith Block McLaughlin and published by Jossey-Bass. This book was released on 1996-06-26 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For both new presidents and their institutions, the presidential leadership transition is an intense experience with serious ramifications for the success of the president's tenure. Ironically, although considerable time is spent orienting new stuedents to our institutions, little thought is given to designing an orientation or entry process for our senior leadership. This sourcebook describes some of the experiences of new presidents during their leadership transition, addresses the varying issues and dilemmas new presidents encounter, and offers advice based on research and first-hand experience. The volume is written for new and experienced presidents, for individuals who aspire to the presidency, and for those who work with new presidents and have a stake in seeing them succeed. This is the 93rd issue of the quarterly journal New Directions for Higher Education. For more information on the series, please see the Journals and Periodicals page.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Informed by critical discourse analysis, this purpose of this study was to examine presidential transitions in the U.S. Van Leeuwen's Social Actor Approach was used as the conceptual framework to understand how texts are used to recreate, shape and transform a social practice, such as college and university presidential leadership during times of transition.Data, covering presidential transitions in 2015 and 2016, were collected from The Chronicle of Higher Education. Data were analyzed using a three-phase analytic process that helped identify patterns and themes in the articles to uncover social actors (images) of college and university presidents in transition. The process also allowed for an analysis of the discursive structures at play, leading to findings of predominant discourses of professionalism, femininity, masculinity, and autonomy, giving rise to images of college and university presidents that remain traditional, masculine and at times heroic. Further, the intersection of discourses and images come together through our discussions to make visible discursive tensions between the president of yesteryear and the president of today/future. Implications and recommendations for practice are discussed.
