Network leadership is an emerging approach that can have an impact on change in education and in society. According to Merriam-Webster (2011), a network is "an interconnected or interrelated chain, group, or system." Intentional interconnectedness is what separates network leadership from other leadership theories. Network leadership has the potential to redefine strategic enrollment management through an expansion of connectedness. At a time of scrutiny and demands for increasing accountability, colleges and universities can benefit from collective action associated with network leadership. Even though network leadership is not a current, formally-accepted leadership theory, it is being referenced, and it reflects the future of leadership--especially in education. The literature focuses primarily on collective impact, community organizing, and coalition structure (Kania and Kramer 2011, Kaye 2001, Renee and McAlister 2011,). Network leadership is differentiated from other leadership theories and best explained through an overview of eight distinguishing attributes: (1) scale; (2) cross-sector coordination; (3) capacity building; (4) reduction of independent action; (5) process; (6) reframing; (7) long-term mentality; and (8) collective communication. Examples of network leadership are provided.
