Beschreibung

Most academics and researchers - like cats - seek to exercise as much independence as possible and display resistance to authority. Leaders of academic/research institutions must still lead and need all the help and advice they can get! In the ten years since they wrote their hugely popular first book (Herding Cats), the world has changed beyond recognition. Geoff Garrett and Graeme Davies have also accumulated even more experience of leading international academic/research institutions, and have talked to even more colleagues around the world. In 'Herding Cats Revisited' they have extended, rewritten and updated their advice to reflect the technology, equality and financial realities of the 2020s. Once again, the authors address common leadership and management themes, like making tough strategic choices, leading change effectively, crisis management, dealing with bureaucracy, managing social media, allocating resources, managing budgets and ensuring effective implementation. This book shows academic/research leaders and aspiring leaders to accept and embrace the qualities of their 'cats' so they can tempt them into achieving exciting and demanding goals.
