Abstract	This pioneering study is the first to explore the research output of faculty members that constitute the managerial spine of an academic institution. We related to the managerial spine on four levels of seniority and responsibility at the institution: President, Rector, and Deans; heads of department; faculty members on academic committees and leaders of the program; heads of study tracks and deputy heads of department. Age and gender are also explored. Empirical data on article citations and teaching surveys were gathered for 88 senior faculty members in a case study of an academic institution in which faculty members occupy or occupied a senior management role. It is evident from the research findings that the first group has the highest h-Index, followed by the second group, and finally, the third and fourth groups. With regard to gender, no conclusions can be reached, as almost all those in this group are men. With regard to age -- the group of retirees had the highest output. The fact that the managerial spine has the highest research output is capable of illuminating the managerial profile of the academic institution. Academic management is unique for being two-headed: with a separation between academic management and administrative management. The research findings lead to the question of whether and to what degree are the considerations taken into account in the decisions of policymakers at the institution academic or are administrative considerations dominant.
