Description
Summary:This chapter presents the leadership journeys of five faculty who participated in the SAGE 2YC: Faculty as Change Agents project. These faculty stories illustrate the influence of the project on their leadership and work as mid‐level administrative or grassroots leaders. Key to the project was the explicit inclusion of leadership development in the professional development (PD). Learning about organizational frames and leadership approaches, the experience of faculty participants designing and leading their own workshops, and the resulting community of practice contributed to the leadership development of faculty participants. Implications and recommendations for leadership development of faculty members, critically important for colleges, concludes the chapter.
