Book excerpt: College and university presidencies have become increasingly more complex under the weight of enormous internal and external changes. That complexity is significantly amplified at Historically Black Colleges and Universities whose presidents lead institutions that are significantly under-resourced amid decreases in state and federal funding and increases in academic costs. This study surveyed middle and senior managers at HBCUs to determine their perceptions of the college and university presidents. The results suggested that the HBCU presidents under examination largely exhibited transformational leadership characteristics. The results also suggest that male participants had higher individual consideration scores than female participants, suggesting that the presidents under review were perceived to have more interests in the Individual Concerns of their male employees vs. their female employees.

Book Historically Black College Leadership   Social Transformation

Download or read book Historically Black College Leadership Social Transformation written by Vickie L. Suggs and published by IAP. This book was released on 2014-01-01 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically Black College Leadership & Social Transformation Little research has been conducted to identify aspects of effective social transformation leadership in American college and university leadership. The authors of this book argue that while much less has been done at predominantly White institutions to practically apply the processes of social transformation as a leadership model, HBCUs have historically relied upon strategies of social transformation as they sought to build and sustain the distinct mission of their institutions that enhance college access, inclusion, and choice. This publication is intended to serve as a departure from the examination of the typology of transformation leadership in the private sector and, instead, view this leadership model through the lens of higher education. The authors’ intent is to focus on institutional leadership at historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs) and provide a deeper understanding of the Social Change Model and how it can be successfully situated as a conduit for realizing and sustaining the mission of Black colleges from perspectives of the past, present, and future.
