Description
There are now over 250 theological seminaries in the United States and Canada. Leading these diverse institutions is a challenging task that combines elements of executive management, academic prowess, master storytelling, and spiritual discipline. Apart from informal mentoring relationships, however there has been no resource specifically designed to impart collected presidential wisdom. Douglass Lewis and Lovett Weems and the dozens of contributors to this volume — a project of the Association of Theological Schools in the United States and Canada — represent hundreds of years of experience in institutional leadership. They pass along sage advice on everything from boards and enrollment to facilities and institutional advancement, with special discussions of women in leadership, Canadian schools, and the challenges of university-based programs. Any person in administration at a seminary recognizes that leadership in theological education presents a unique set of challenges. A Handbook for Seminary Presidents aims to make this task easier and more fulfilling not only for the presidents themselves but also for deans, faculty, support staff, and all who seek to effectively prepare the next generation of Christian leaders. - from Amzon
