The leadership characteristics and styles of business school deans are presented based on an examination of different dimensions of their roles. These include issues of strategic positioning, such as financial viability, prestige, size, mission, age, location, and programme portfolios, as well as the influences of rankings, sector accreditations, governance structures, networks and national policies on strategy implementation. Drawing on international case studies and deans' development programmes globally, the authors explore constraints on deans' autonomy, university and external relations, and how business school deans add value over the period of their tenures.This candid and well-researched book is essential reading for aspiring business school leaders, those hiring and working with deans, and other higher education leaders.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
