Effective Leadership at Minority-Serving Institutions cover

Strong, effective, and innovative leadership is critical for institutions of higher education, especially for Minority-Serving Institutions (MSIs). Indeed, research and examples have shown leadership instability among some types of MSIs, while discussions and research on effective leadership for other MSIs is noticeably absent from the extant literature. In this volume, noted experts, researchers, and leaders discuss opportunities and challenges for leadership across the full range of MSIs, while creating a dialogue on leadership models and best practices. Chapters explore issues at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Hispanic Serving Institutions(HSIs), Tribal Colleges and Universities (TCUs), and Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISIs). This book helps higher education and student affairs scholars and administrators unpack contemporary leadership issues and strategies, and synthesizes best practices to help MSI leaders increase the effectiveness and sustainability of their institutions.

"This book centers Minority-Serving Institutions as critical spaces for the emergence of innovative leadership approaches to serve students from diverse backgrounds. In a time of demographic transformation in the U.S., the scholarship in this book enhances our understanding of the contributions of leaders in Minority-Serving Institutions, while recognizing the diversity of challenges they face."
-Anne-Marie Nuñez, Associate Professor, Educational Studies, The Ohio State University, USA

"The editors of Effective Leadership at Minority-Serving Institutions have developed a hallmark publication. They have assembled an impressive set of contributors who investigated hot topic items at Minority-Serving Institutions (MSIs). Most importantly, they provided separate treatment across the diversity of MSIs to empower practitioners and policy makers with good decision-making information."
-Jerlando F L Jackson, Vilas Distinguished Professor of Higher Education and Director, Wisconsin’s Equity & Inclusion Laboratory, University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA
