| Abstract | The suit. The paper-pusher. The gatekeeper. Few people go into administrative work to become one of these, nonetheless many end up living up to these management stereotypes. Sometimes this is the result of a deliberate effort to maintain a sense of control and prestige. More often than not it appears to be the belief that it is better to play it safe rather than take a chance at change and failure. Most times this is simply the way administration has been modeled, doing what seems to have worked in the past. Therefore, at first glance, it may seem odd, even antithetical, to view administration as activism. However, upon closer examination of how effective leaders approach their work, the relationship between effective management--particularly in higher education--and acting in pursuit of a goal larger than oneself becomes clear. The author shares a personal account in choosing to be a career administrator. (ERIC). |
