Organizational Theory in Higher Education (Core Concepts in Higher Education)

Description:

The second edition of Organizational Theory in Higher Education is a comprehensive and accessible treatment of organizational theory and higher education administration. Noted scholar Kathleen Manning offers a fresh take on the models and lenses through which higher education can be viewed by presenting a full range of organizational theories, from traditional to current. Chapters discuss the disciplinary foundation, structure, metaphor, assumptions, characteristics, and other elements of each organizational theory and conclude with cases highlighting practical applications. Questions for discussion are provided at the end of each chapter and embedded in the cases to assist the reader in making connections to their practice. Manning’s rich, interdisciplinary treatment enables readers to gain a full understanding of the perspectives that operate on a college campus and ways to adopt effective practice in the context of new and continuing tensions, contexts, and challenges.

            I love this book! It was the text for my Organizational Theory course in my masters program for HE Administration and Leadership. This book is straightforward and easy to understand. It covers the gamut of organizations in Higher Ed, as expected. This course + text helped me more than any other, understand how HE institutions are different from corporate business. Having worked in HE for several years before completing my masters it was hard to understand why the struggles of communication and decision-making were so difficult at times. This book reveals the answers. I have sent this text as a gift to two of my colleagues starting out at my university who come from non-HE organizations to help them better understand how a university “works.”
