Revamp senior administration organization for more effective governance Governance Reconsidered: How Boards, Presidents, Administrators, and Faculty Can Help Their Colleges Thrive takes an in-depth look at the current practice of governance in higher education and explores solutions for more effective functioning. Written by a former college president, the book provides an insider's perspective on the growing tensions around the traditional shared governance model and identifies the key challenges facing trustees, presidents, senior administrators, and faculty. Traditional shared governance operations are typically time-consuming, process-laden, and slow to respond to the internal and external forces acting upon modern educational institutions. Higher education is facing increasing political and economic pressure, and senior administration frequently needs the flexibility to make institutional decisions quickly. Using recent public scandals as examples, Governance Reconsidered illustrates how the tension between the need for timely decisions and action versus the importance of mission and academic quality is creating a dramatic systemic problem. The book provides practical advice on the issues at the heart of the matter, including: The nature and pace of change on campus, including the pressures facing higher education Clarity about the roles and responsibilities of trustees, the president, and the faculty The campus community's role in decision-making activities How thriving universities can govern collaboratively The book also addresses the brand new challenges that affect higher education governance, including MOOCs, online learning, and rising questions about value and cost. Campus leaders must work together effectively to boost higher education, and Governance Reconsidered contains the questions and answers integral to implementing effective governance.

Dr. Susan Pierce's new book--GOVERNANCE RECONSIDERED: How Boards, Presidents, Administrators, and Faculty Can Help Their Colleges Thrive--should be required reading for both current and aspiring college presidents. Well-researched, it also benefits from Pierce's successful personal experiences as both an academic administrator and a college president. It is especially enriched and contemporized by her more recent experiences as president of SRP Consulting. In this role, Pierce continues to have broad access to numerous colleges which are dealing with today's unprecedented challenges of attracting capable presidential leadership and effecting badly needed institutional change.Pierce's book serves current college presidents and academic administrators well by raising their awareness of the increasing complexity of dealing with their various constituencies. She notes how major institutional power base shifts are occurring, precipitated by such phenomena as increasing faculty independence, financial pressures, social media, and the advent of massive open online courses (MOOCs). She wisely notes that presidents who ignore these shifts do so at their own peril because the historical power structures they have traditionally depended upon for leadership and change can rapidly shift and become ineffective or, worse yet, explosive.Pierce notes that those entering college presidencies from the for-profit world are especially vulnerable to failure when assuming that their traditional institutional "levers" of power will work to lead and to create change in academic environments. They thus risk becoming "road kill" on their chosen road to academic governance if they don't adapt to the unique subtleties of effective academic leadership.GOVERNANCE RECONSIDERED clearly demonstrates that today, more than ever, a college presidency is a true art form requiring visionary skills, diplomatic finesse, strong but subtle willpower, financial acumen, persistence, and amazing amounts of patience. This book should be a valuable catalyst for self-examination by both current and would-be college presidents and a guide to effective leadership styles in a rapidly changing collegiate academic world.
