High-quality leadership in higher education is critical to overall student engagement, persistence, and graduation outcomes. With higher education institutions pushing for more Black enrollment and methods to retain current students, it is essential that institutions reflect the Black academics they serve. In addition, there is a shortage of Black department heads, deans, and provosts to make important decisions about the matriculation of students towards graduation. It is essential that higher education institutions take what they have learned from those who have been in academic leadership roles and develop new strategies to recruit, mentor, and retain high-quality Black academic leaders that reflect the students they will serve. The Future of Black Leadership in Higher Education: Firsthand Experiences and Global Impact provides experiences, narratives, and best practices that are more inclusive of Black faculty by providing them the opportunity to seek advancement in these critical roles. It presents critical knowledge about academic leadership for Black people and familiarizes readers with policies, practices, and procedures. Covering topics such as predominantly white institutions, second-career Black women, and Black professorates, this premier reference source is a dynamic resource for faculty and administrators of higher education, students of higher education, librarians, researchers, and academicians.
