"The Changing Dynamics of Higher Education Middle Management" offers a comprehensive analysis of the evolving role of middle academic leaders in educational institutions. The book examines the impact of what is known as new management on higher education and highlights how the values and expectations of these leaders have changed. The authors Rui Santiago, V. Lynn Meek, Leo Goedegebuure, and Teresa Carvalho combine theoretical perspectives with empirical data to illuminate the challenges and opportunities arising from the new demands placed on middle managers. The discussion includes key questions regarding the representation of interests and the measurement of academic performance, which is increasingly focused on management skills. This work is a valuable resource for anyone engaged with the dynamics of higher education management and the associated changes in the academic landscape.
