Description

The Gentle Academic offers a transformative framework for addressing systemic challenges that impact academic staff wellbeing and satisfaction. This edited volume from Springer examines eleven key principles designed to foster thoughtful engagement with scholarly work and build stronger collegial relationships within higher education. Rather than accepting structural inequities, publication pressures, funding constraints, and workforce casualization as inevitable, this book presents concrete alternatives grounded in community, leadership, and care. Written for academics, administrators, and institutional leaders seeking meaningful change, it provides evidence-based approaches to creating more humane working environments. The principles emphasise transparency, intellectual honesty, and mutual support whilst acknowledging the real pressures facing contemporary universities. Whether you are navigating your own career challenges or working to reshape institutional culture, this resource equips you with actionable insights for building a more sustainable and compassionate academic community.
