Description

What is the role of a professor? How does someone achieve professorial status? What do non-professorial colleagues think about professors? Professors as Academic Leaders draws on a wealth of data not only to explore what it is to be a professor but also to consider how professors are perceived by others. Linda Evans presents the findings from those three studies, with a combined data base of over 2,400 questionnaire responses and 100 interview transcripts, and discusses their implications for the future development of the UK-based professoriate and leadership in higher education. She looks at what people want from their leaders, and why, and what happens when they don't receive it. She also considers whether, and if so to what extent, leaders and leadership practice should be informed and shaped by what 'the led' want.
