Whether newly tenured or preparing for a leadership position, this is the book every faculty wishes they had read before stepping into a leadership role.

Faculty are selected for leadership opportunities based on their individual contributor roles, but they are seldom trained to be leaders within their institutions. Whether mentoring graduate students, leading a center or lab, chairing a committee, or even rising to the level of department chair (or higher), many faculty flounder due to this lack of training: the skills needed are not innate but must be learned. This book brings together decades of valuable academic leadership and mentorship knowledge and experience to prepare new and mid-career faculty to succeed as mentors and leaders. Written in an accessible style and illustrated with case studies and real-world examples to highlight key concepts, it blends lived experience, practical tools, and scholarly insights, and provides reflective prompts and ready-to-use frameworks and scripts to help the reader apply what they are learning.
