This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This phenomenological study explored the perceptions of thirty-four CEOs of color of the underrepresentation of minorities serving in presidential roles at community colleges. Research has identified an underrepresentation of race and gender diversity among community college presidents that fails to mirror the racial and ethnic diversity of community college students today. Historically and currently, the majority of presidents in American community colleges have been older white males. An analytical review of the research shows scant progress in diversifying minority-serving community college presidents, creating a need to understand leakage points in the pipeline to the presidency relevant to understanding the underrepresentation of minority community college presidents. This qualitative study used Critical Race Theory (CRT) and Glass Ceiling theoretical frameworks. Thirty-four CEOs of color participated, representing diverse ethnic backgrounds, including African American, Asian Pacific Islander, and Latino/Hispanic, and spanning twelve states and every region of the U.S. In semi-structured interviews, the CEOs described their perceptions of the underrepresentation of minorities among the ranks of community college presidents, their ascension to the presidency, and the leadership preparation necessary for attaining the presidency in community colleges. Multiple steps were used to conduct the data analysis. Counter-narratives were examined using a modified interpretative phenomenological approach (IPA) concept model the researcher expanded creating a nine (9) step system of data collection and analysis for the. Using the Pew Research Center's (2020) classification and name of generations as a guide, the researcher coupled and aligned each participant by both generations of the American community college, development (Deegan and Tillery, 1985; Geller, 2001) with distinct characteristics of generations of community college leadership style (Sullivan, 2001; Boggs and McPhail, 2016) hence updating the generation definitions and naming conventions. An analysis of the study determined the current focus of community college leadership development is more Equity Centered labeling the 4th generational style as Transformers and the 5th generation as Equity Achievers. What emerged were rich counter-stories and voices from Gen X and Gen X II/Millennials I leaders providing a unique perspective from this newest and little-explored generation of leaders. Findings arranged by composite, gender, and ethnicity groups retained participants' authentic voices. An analysis of the data identified significant themes that illustrate leaders' perceptions of challenges, barriers, and biases that contribute to the underrepresentation of minorities serving in presidential roles in community colleges. Themes included structural barriers within institutional culture, biased perceptions of race, and gender and systemic racism. Findings from the study indicate that the leadership development system that served a movement in the second half of the 20th century may be insufficient for addressing ongoing underrepresentation in the 21st century. Findings identified including lack of a clear pathway to the presidency, evidence of a leaky pipeline, a flawed hiring process and gatekeepers along the continuum, opportunity, access, support, mentors, and intentional leadership development. Systemic biases and structural racism, a glass ceiling for men and women of color, and socio-political forms of oppression as microaggressions, tokenism, invisibility, the Imposter Syndrome, and John Henry-ism. This study identified numerous deficiencies that impact the underrepresentation of minorities in the community college presidency offering sixteen (16) recommendations to improve practice. Recommendations included the role of university-based leadership preparation programs, a call to action for regional, state, and national associations and affiliate councils, and examining the role of boards of trustees and governing boards in leading the charge for diverse leadership. This study makes a practical, theoretical, and social contribution to the study of the underrepresentation of race and gender diversity in the community college presidency provides insight into the myriad of factors identified, gives voice to the newest generation of leaders, and discusses implications for future research and practice.

This book was released on 2000 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Community colleges are in a strategic position to meet the growing demands for educating a population that is in a dynamic state of change, a population that is becoming more diverse with each passing year. A diverse population and other critical issues have created a new challenge for community colleges. These challenges require extraordinary educational leaders. Leaders of the 21st century must be change agents with a moral purpose and commitment to educating the citizenry. This exploratory study contributes to our understanding of motivating and constraining factors that influenced a Black woman leader in academia. By examining the historical antecedents of slavery, racism, and sexism through the lenses of the lived experiences of an African American woman chief executive officer in a community college setting, aspiring young Black women will gain insight into factors that may enhance their ability to achieve the CEO status. Black feminist thought and critical social theory offered a framework for interpreting the perceptions of this phenomenal Black woman. The researcher employed the art of listening and the in-depth interview for data collection. These tools allowed the informant to use her own voice to tell her story. Relationships, the value of education, construction of a positive self-identity, leadership, and the ability to adapt to adversity/resiliency were the five major themes that emerged through thoughtful analysis. This woman embodies moral leadership, a leadership model that includes the ethics of caring and personal accountability. The findings illuminate a model of leadership for the 21st century.

Book The Managerial Roles of Community College Chief Business Officers

Download or read book The Managerial Roles of Community College Chief Business Officers written by and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation examines the managerial roles and organizational status of the chief business officer in North Carolina community colleges, with the intended purpose of better understanding how the roles are performed. This study is conceptually framed with the managerial role theory of Baker, which was based on the work of Mintzberg. As a qualitative research study, interviews developed through the constant comparison method were conducted with six community college chief business officers (CBOs) in North Carolina, based on the following research questions: 1. How do CBOs perceive their managerial roles? 2. How do the perceptions of the CBOs correspond to the perceptions of the president and chief academic officer in their respective college? 3. How do CBOs perceive their place and status in their college? 4. How do the CBOs feel their roles and place in their college have changed over the course of their tenure in the position? The study's results, triangulated through document analysis and interviews with the CBOs' respective presidents and chief academic officers, show the perceived roles the CBOs performed and their status in their colleges. Labels for the roles were initially based on Baker's model and modified by the descriptions of the CBOs, who saw their roles as divisional or institutional, with a hierarchy of roles in each category and sub-categories of peripheral roles, variable roles, and core roles. Resource manager, liaison, problem solver, monitor and information clearinghouse were identified as core to both the divisional and institutional roles, with negotiator, visionary, ambassador, and advocate seen as peripheral roles, while the CBO was not found to be an agent of institutional change. Experience and longevity were identified as factors that positively affected the CBO's status, while also increasing the importance of the advisor role. Implications from this study include opportunities to expand the study of the CBO position and functions, an.
