| Summary: | "The Entrepreneurial College President is an update and extension of The Effective College President, the groundbreaking 1988 ACE Series book by Fisher, Tack, and Wheeler. In addition to discussing presidential attitudes and values, James Fisher and James Koch focus on actual presidential behavior. They have expanded their work to include much larger samples of women and minority presidents, whose numbers have increased tremendously in the past 15 years. They also include numerous control variables that reflect the character of the president's institution, and focus on the entrepreneurial attitudes and behavior of presidents, along with how these factors determine success. They examine the extent to which academic training and reliance upon technology affect presidential success, and introduce a multivariate model that permits them to examine how a variety of factors related to presidential success influence one another and presidential behavior."--BOOK JACKET. |
