Klappentext
Redefining Leadership-From the Inside Out
Leadership in higher education is rarely simple-but for those leading from the margins, it can be uniquely complex. The Glass Cliffexplores what it means to lead with integrity in institutions built on tradition, hierarchy, and too often, exclusion. Drawing from his lived experience as an openly transgender department chair and his expertise as an experimental psychologist, Professor Mel Rutherford offers a compelling roadmap for building trust, community, and resilience amid crisis and systemic bias.
Through a rare combination of research, reflection, and real-world leadership practice, Rutherford weaves together values-based governance, shared leadership, and compassionate accountability into a model of inclusive transformation. His story illuminates the intersection of personal calling and professional responsibility-offering both guidance and solidarity for those working to reshape organizational culture by including:
- Evidence-based research with narrative storytelling to make leadership theory accessible and practical
- Values-based decision-making grounded in psychology and Unitarian Universalist principles
- How shared leadership and consensus-building strengthen community during times of institutional crisis
- The author's Leadership Essentials program and Leadership Odysseyonline course, offering an integrated path for deeper leadership development
Ideal for graduate and professional courses in Leadership, Gender Studies, Psychology, and Organizational Behavior, The Glass Cliff: One Transman's Leadership Odyssey supports both emerging and experienced leaders in higher education, business, and nonprofit sectors. It is an essential resource for DEI practitioners, faculty developers, HR professionals, and anyone seeking to foster inclusive and values-driven leadership.
