| book description |

Statement of Purpose The work lives of faculty and administrative leaders in higher education institutions, while typically rewarding, are often challenging and stressful. To better manage their work agenda and make key decisions, they need access to useful information available in a timely manner. Effective Practices for Academic Leaders is a monthly publication that assists leaders by offering critical advice and information in a concise format for ready application in administrative life. Each monthly 16- page briefing presents guidance on a key issue. Each issue sets out the context and fundamental issues; summarizes key scholarly research findings to ground administrative practice; offers insights and tips on effective practices drawn from real world experiences, and presents an annotated bibliography. These briefings provide the critical information today's busy leaders need in a concise format and with an emphasis on application. Each issue is written by an acknowledged authority. These briefings cover a wide array of leadership, management, and governance practices associated with the roles and responsibilities of academic administration, with special emphasis on topics germane to academic departments. They also address the knowledge, skills, attitudes, and behaviors needed for exemplary administrative performance.
