大学的有效领导--《大学运行模式--大学组织与领导的控制系统》述评

美国大学系主任管理和领导角色探析

在美国,系是大学最基本的组成单位。因此,大学系主任几乎负责与教、学、研及向社会提供服务有关的各项活动,通常扮演管理和领导的双重角色。其主要的工作包括开发师资、组织管理本系的各项日常活动和事务、领导本系的整体发展以及从事教学科研工作。显而易见,美国高等教育能够达到今天的水准与系主任的贡献是分不开的。中国高校正在面临、或在不同程度上进行内部结构和职能的调整和重组。尤其是许多大学纷纷成立学院。因而,对系主任管理领导角色进行重新定位具有深远意义。相信了解和借鉴国外的成功经验定有裨益。

The Color of Leadership

On July 1, 2000, I became the first black dean of Education in the almost 100-year existence of the formidable University of Pretoria, South Africa. This essay offers a set of meditations on being a black dean in a white university at the birth of a post-apartheid democracy. There are many sides to this narrative. It is a story of leading in a young democracy and about black leadership in a conservative white environment. It is about the emotions and politics of change. It is about engaging established patterns of certainty and control, and managing the inevitability of loss and change. It is about race, reconciliation, and restitution—all at the same time.     

The Virtues of Leadership

高校学科团队中学术骨干的领导力研究

学术骨干是高校学科建设团队中的骨干力量,是学科实力提升和优势特色形成的关键因素。学术骨干作为学科团队中的引领人,在学科建设中发挥着重要作用,重视团队中学术骨干的领导力,对学科建设的内涵式发展有着至关重要的意义。目前,在学科建设中,学术骨干在学科引领中存在领导力观念滞后、学科内部体制机制不健全、学术骨干能力素质有待加强、学科团队文化建设薄弱等问题。为了提升高校学科团队中学术骨干的领导力,实现学科建设的可持续发展,高校应在加强领导力理论基础、健全学科内部治理体制机制、提升学术骨干自身能力、重视学科团队文化建设等方面进行综合考虑。     

Do Changing State Steering Mechanisms have an Impact on Academic Leadership at Universities

Universities have been forced to change their internal management and leadership procedures along with the changing state steering. In Finland, changes in financial steering during last ten years have had the strongest effective impact on internal university management.Budget allocation is a policy instrument that can be used by governments to influence the behaviour of universities. The same applies to the situation within institutions. The way budgets are allocated depends on the relationships between the central university administration and faculties.Finnish universities have started to use the same fund allocation models as are in use at the national level, although the amount of funds to be allocated differs markedly from the national level funding. The increase in external funds, and the increase of state funds to be competed for, create new management procedures inside the university and its faculties. Universities have started to implement entrepreneurial activity models in their management processes.Universities have to find a new way for management to take into account the changing state steering and the increasing external funds, as well as the nature of the academic community. This is a growing challenge for university management and leadership.

一流大学学术领导力:基本特征、层级扩散与实现策略

一流大学的学术领导力成为了"双一流"建设要关注的核心焦点,一流大学通过由学术所形成的聚合力对其组织中的个体以及组织外的机构和公众产生影响.学术领导力是一种专业主义的影响力,是个体和组织的双重领导力,是教学学术、应用学术、整合学术、发现学术的多维体现.在深化"双一流"建设的进程中,我们要框定大学学术领导力的合理边界,进一步弱化大学与其他组织之间的"界限",让大学成为公共交往的场所,从学术团队的领导力建设入手,改革学术评价制度,实现教师在不同组织间的"交叉聘用",实现教师的合理流动,进一步促进分布式的学术领导力生态格局.

新文科建设中的教师学术领导力探析

跨学科合作是推动新文科建设、促进文科教育创新发展的基本路径,但在面对文科教师"单枪匹马"的传统科研方式、学科交叉融合发展"老大难"问题以及学术虚假合作等学术合作困境时就需要发挥教师学术领导力的关键作用.在新文科建设实践中,骨干教师和领军人物通过价值观引领、目标定位、持续推动、成果提炼四个具有特定运行逻辑的作用环节,对团队成员围绕共同学术目标进行的实质性合作产生影响力,而这些作用环节综合影响力的大小取决于其前后连贯、自成闭环的运行逻辑.     

Transformational Leadership: The Nexus Between Faith and Classroom Leadership

Transformational leadership is well documented in organizational and business literature. Classroom and faith-based applications are more recent phenomena.

Thirty-four undergraduate students completed surveys containing open-ended and forced-choice questions; the findings highlighted the importance of compassion, optimism, encouragement, and openness as behaviors that facilitated faith transformation.
