Narratives of Becoming Leaders in Disciplinary and Institutional Contexts: Leadership Identity in Learning and Teaching in Higher Education

Editat de Dr Anesa Hosein, Dr Namrata Rao, Professor Ian M. Kinchin
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 iul 2024
Narratives of Becoming Leaders in Disciplinary and Institutional Contexts provides theoretically informed personal narratives of nine emerging and established leaders in learning and teaching in Australia, Brazil, Canada, Trinidad and Tobago, the UK and the USA. The academics' narratives consider how individuals navigate the disciplinary and institutional context as emergent and established leaders in learning and teaching. These learning and teaching leadership narratives highlight the commonalities and differences in the struggles that academic leaders across the world encounter within their unique institutional and disciplinary contexts. The journeys of learning and teaching leadership are often fuzzy owing to lack of well-established structures and pathways which may be further complicated by the unique institutional and disciplinary contexts. This book contributes to our understanding of the impact of disciplinary and institutional contexts on the practice of learning and teaching leaders. It captures the subjective experiences of academics at various stages in their career, navigating their individual pathways of learning and teaching leadership within their national context.

Recenzii

While this important volume captures a plurality of voices, a variety of contexts and a diversity of experiences, it is fascinating to detect and distil some important points of intersection in the narratives. Three that stand out are that leadership is always a journey, never a destination; it flourishes through social influence, seldom remote direction; and it is fundamentally about relationship, not power or prestige. More than just a collection of hard-earned wisdom and insight, this book is also a compelling read.
Narratives of Becoming Leaders offers valuable practical and theoretical lessons about pathways to teaching and learning leadership in higher education institutions across contexts. This is an important read for academic staff who seek to to build their institutions' teaching and learning communities and capacities.
