Today, more than ever, Department Chairs need to be equipped with strategies to lead their departments to success in research. The Strategic Department Chair: Leading for Academic Research Success provides techniques not only to cultivate a department that is successful in research, but also to sustain that level of productivity. The book offers Department Chairs a valuable resource for negotiating the real-life challenges that they will face as academic leaders.
