The Thinking Team: Toward a Cognitive Model of Administrative Teamwork in Higher Education.
Neumann, Anna
Journal of Higher Education, v62 n5 p485-513 Sep-Oct 1991
A study identified eight cognitive roles played by college presidents' administrative teams and concluded that the resulting complexity, although difficult to manage, may improve executive-level leadership. Teams with multiple cognitive roles typically include a cognitively complex president, norms favoring cognitive diversity, and varied opportunities for role enactment. (Author/MSE)
