“Digital Leadership in Higher Education: Purposeful Social Media in a Connected World, by Josie Ahlquist, is a timely and relevant book given the global pandemic’s impact on the necessity of leaders to have an online presence. The purpose of this book is to serve as a resource for leaders in higher education who want to purposefully engage with social media platforms as part of their leadership approach. Ahlquist. . . skillfully walk[s] readers through the tensions that reside at the intersection of the purpose of social media within the context of higher education, the theory of digital leadership, and the practice of digital leadership by higher education leaders.
The book seems to be targeted to an audience of higher education professionals who are cautious, skeptical, late, or laggard adopters of social media and technology. Although addressed to senior administrators, the book could be valuable for faculty professional developments to offer training on connecting with students in online environments.
Student affairs/ higher education graduate preparation programs should use this book in leadership courses to grapple with digital leadership in practice. In summary, [this] is a timely and relevant book to prompt a reimagining of leadership in the digital age of connection.”
