Mindful Leadership: An Insight-Based Approach to College Administration by Jeffr

Description: Mindful Leadership by Jeffrey L. Buller Practical, field-tested advice on how academic leaders can apply the principles of mindful leadership. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description This book applies the concept of mindfulness to the challenges faced by academic leaders such as department chairs, deans, provosts, presidents or chancellors, and faculty leaders. In addition to instructing academic leaders how to become more mindful, the book also provides clear and practical explanations about what mindful leadership means in the setting of higher education.
