Description

Product Description Shared Governance begins with the premise that today's higher education governance practices have lost their focus and vitality. By re-examining the original suppositions of shared governance, along with an infusion of seminal democratic values and principles, a contemporary model is envisioned. From historical perspectives on shared governance, the book then takes a view of current governance models through the lens of Critical Theory and Open Systems Thinking. Political, corporate, and school system models are briefly reviewed before moving on to application to colleges and universities. Each chapter concludes with a continuous story of a young and maturing college vice president as she grapples with a static and worn governance system at her institution. She strives to reinvigorate the notion of shared governance and to bring staff and students into the process. The final three chapters of the book each include an essay written by individuals who have served on the ground level of shared governance at their institution. These people include: an administrative assistant who helped to create a Staff Council; a Student Government Association president who took a nascent SGA and gave students a new voice; and, an associate dean who mentored students in this developmental process. Review Through a thoughtful and informative look back, Dr. Rettig sets the stage for all of us who care deeply about higher education to reflect upon our own values and beliefs about shared governance and leadership in the academy. Perry's writing questions the current state of shared governance along with the leadership, or lack thereof, that has led us to a very different place in higher education than most of us anticipated when we pursued careers in colleges and universities. Perry's book is a must read for those who wish to assume a leadership role in higher education.--Martin Tadlock, Regional Chancellor, University of South Florida, St. Petersburg About the Author Dr. Perry R. Rettig has been an educator for 36 years with a breadth of leadership experiences. He has written extensively on the topic of leadership and has presented his thoughts to dozens of audiences across the globe.
