Chaos Theory & Higher Education: Leadership, Planning, & PolicyMarc Cutright P. Lang, 2001 - 250 Seiten The challenges of leadership, policy formation, and strategic planning in higher education are difficult under the best of circumstances.

The authors of this anthology - institutional leaders and academics from the United States, Canada, and Great Britain - consider metaphors of chaos theory that may have not only descriptive utility, but prescriptive power, in the enhancement of these duties and opportunities. |
