If I Knew Then What I Know Now: Using the Leadership Competencies Developed by the American Association of Community Colleges to Prepare Community College Presidents
McNair, Delores E.; Duree, Christopher A.; Ebbers, Larry
Community College Review, v39 n1 p3-25 Jan 2011
Although much has been written about preparing community college leaders, little is known about how presidents believe they might have better prepared for the role. Using presidential narratives from a national study, this article describes how presidents perceive gaps in prior preparation and offers recommendations to support the professional development of future leaders. (Contains 3 tables.)
