The challenges of leadership, policy formation, and strategic planning in higher education are difficult under the best of circumstances. Our rapid pace of change and shifting societal expectations of higher education sharpen these challenges. The authors of this anthology - institutional leaders and academics from the United States, Canada, and Great Britain - consider metaphors of chaos theory that may have not only descriptive utility, but prescriptive power, in the enhancement of these duties and opportunities.
Industry Reviews
The essays are often arresting and suggestive of novel approaches and are sure to provide controversial ideas for traditional campus practitioners. (George Keller, Author of 'Academic Strategy') This collection is an important step toward realizing chaos theory's use not just as a descriptive tool, but as a prescriptive one for improving strategic planning and organizational practices in higher education. (James L. Morrison, Professor of Educational Leadership, University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill; Editor emeritus of 'On the Horizon')
