Leading Change fills a significant void in leadership literature and identifies how boards and presidents work together to build exceptional institutions in the face of vesing challenges, ranging from dire financial and enrollment crises to governance failures to natural disasters. Based upon 18 case studies covering the spectrum of the higher-education sector - urban, suburban, and rural; from 900 students to more than 182,000; public and independent - Leading Change identifies the attributes and practices that create change-adept leadership and provides practical tools and sound advice for presidents, board members, institutional leaders, and other committed to improving higher education. Part tour guide, part provocateur, MacTaggart leads us on a journey through different types of transformational changes that took place at very different institutions. Through the journey, we learn what role boards play in this kind of change, how board members effectively partner with presidents at these change-adept institutions, and why some boards, including presidents and chancellors, are able to navigate successfully through change when others aren't.
