Thriving and Surviving on Campus: An Insider's Guide to Community College Administration - Paperback
by Ray Giles (Author), Bob Jensen (Author)
This book is about how to survive, thrive, and make a difference as a leader in the political arena that can sometimes be overwhelming. First published in 2000, the book quickly rose to the bestseller list at the American Association of Community College's bookstore as college administrators, university graduate students and college staff development officers recognized its importance as a learning and mentoring resource for current and future college leaders. The authors share ideas, anecdotes, and vicarious experiences that should help readers take advantage of career opportunities and, if necessary, survive pitfalls that may temporarily set them back. The Third Edition has been updated and expanded to reflect new challenges and new opportunities found on America's community college campuses.
