Baxter L: Global Voices Shaping the
Future

Global Voices Shaping the Future

Expert Insights into Leadership, Teams, and Future Readiness

This book offers a comprehensive analysis of fake leadership&nbsp;within Higher Education Institutions (HEIs), revealing its&nbsp;detrimental&nbsp;impact on&nbsp;organization,&nbsp;job performance and brand commitment among employees. It shows the role of intra-organizational trust, job-related attitudes, and the unique vulnerabilities of HEIs in those processes.&nbsp;Crucially,&nbsp;the book also outlines defensive strategies, which can mitigate these negative effects, emphasizing the importance of transparency, ethical conduct, and collective action within HEIs.
Drawing on empirical research involving&nbsp;over 500 employees of European HEIs, the authors identify specific organizational and individual strategies, which have the potential to combat and mitigate organizational destruction caused by fake leadership within HEIs.&nbsp;
It is an essential resource for scholars, practitioners, and policymakers committed to safeguarding the future of higher education.

Investigating Destructive Leadership Styles and their Impact in HE Institutions

Fake Leadership in Higher Education

Critical University Studies

How the cult of capitalism reshaped the American university--and hollowed it out from within.Over the past several decades, American universities have been remade as engines of entrepreneurial ambition. Technology transfer offices, business incubators, pitch competitions, innovation hubs, and leadership centers now sit at the heart of campus life, radically altering how institutions describe their purpose, structure curricula, and imagine student success. The Start-Up Factory argues that this shift has come at a steep cost.James Rushing Daniel traces the rise of entrepreneurialism in higher education and shows how universities came to embrace the figure of the founder as both ideal and benefactor. Business leaders--many of them major donors--are celebrated as singular visionaries, their values imported into academic life and framed as models for intellectual work. This reverence, Daniel argues, has narrowed the university's sense of public responsibility for distorted academics, and transformed institutions into finishing schools for aspiring entrepreneurs. Moving across policy and historical documents, institutional rhetoric, teaching materials, site visits, and interviews, The Start-Up Factory documents how entrepreneurial thinking has reshaped the pedagogy, culture, and mission of the American university.The consequences of this entrepreneurial focus extend far beyond campuses. By promoting the myth of the self-made billionaire, universities help legitimize extreme inequality and normalize forms of power that undermine democratic life. At a moment of deep institutional crisis, when the influence of the billionaire class on college campuses is increasingly absolute and the future of higher education is uncertain, The Start-Up Factory offers a clear-eyed account of how universities arrived here--and why reclaiming their autonomy has become an urgent task.

The Start-Up Factory

Routledge Advances in Feminist Studies and Intersectionality

This book examines men in powerful positions who question relations of power and domination from within. Through an intersectional lens, it illustrates how gender, class and other dimensions of domination intertwine and how an emancipatory critique can emerge from such privileged positions.Drawing on interviews with 23 current and former male executives from the Swiss financial sector alongside autobiographical accounts, the study analyses patterns of what the author terms "emancipatory eutopian critique" - focusing less on critique as heroic opposition and more on transformations towards caring relationships. From fathers abandoning lucrative careers to care for children to executives embracing caring and responsible leadership, these narratives illuminate "eutopian transformations", showing how an orientation towards caring relations to the self and others in the present can create more dialogical and caring futures. The analysis demonstrates how privilege can become a site of resistance and offers theoretical tools, including "gender as mosaic".Aimed at scholars, policy-makers, practitioners and students interested in links between men, masculinities, organisations and social transformation, this book is an invaluable resource for those working in and beyond such fields as gender studies, critical studies on men and masculinities, organisation and leadership studies, political science, sociology, social and public policy, and social movement studies.The Open Access version of this book, available at http://www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC BY-NC-ND) 4.0 license.

Transformative Potentials of Self-Critique by Men in Leadership Positions

Gender and Leadership in the Financial Sector

Why unfettered free-market capitalism endangers democracy—and what to do about it. In Private Power and Democracy’s Decline, Mordecai Kurz explores the relationship between free-market capitalism and democracy. He shows that technology has made capitalism different from what was envisioned in the Age of Enlightenment. Technology creates centers of market power and monopoly concentration that result in a society in which some people are enriched immensely while many workers’ livelihoods are often destroyed. Contrary to conventional thinking, technological competition does not remove market power, which becomes a permanent fixture of free-market capitalism. Such private power creates political inequality and generates forces that cause democracy’s decline and possible destruction. Applying these ideas to the US, Kurz shows that today’s problems begin in the 1980s with the policy of unregulated free-market capitalism. Coupled with the information technology revolution, this created a techno-winner-takes-all economy—leading to a second Gilded Age of unsustainable inequality and extreme political polarization. In the last 50 years, the economy “boomed” for some while leaving the majority of America’s workers behind. Kurz concludes that only regulated capitalism can support democracy so that the benefits of technology are more equally shared and no person’s livelihood is destroyed to enable others to be enriched. To save democracy, he proposes a “restoration-of-livelihood” policy, offering firms managerial flexibility to maintain rising productivity while ensuring that technology does not destroy the livelihood of others.

The 52-Week Leadership Journey is a year-long, collaborative workbook designed to transform leadership from a title into a daily discipline. Structured as a 52-week roadmap, it equips emerging and experienced leaders with practical tools, reflection prompts, and group activities that drive real behavioral change-not just intellectual insight. Drawing on the wisdom of thinkers such as Carol Dweck, Simon Sinek, Jocko Willink, Patrick Lencioni, John Kotter, and others, this manual integrates the best of contemporary leadership research into an accessible, step-by-step journey.

Each week focuses on a core leadership competency, including growth mindset, positive thinking, integrity, self-discipline, emotional intelligence, effective communication, psychological safety, feedback, conflict resolution, motivation, strategic thinking, risk management, organizational alignment, and leading change. Every chapter combines concise teaching with discussion questions, workshops, and real-world case studies so leaders can immediately apply concepts with their teams. The workbook format makes it ideal for cohorts, mastermind groups, corporate training programs, and one-on-one coaching relationships.

The 52-Week Leadership Journey is built around the conviction that you cannot lead others until you first lead yourself. Participants are guided to clarify their purpose, define their "Why," align daily habits with long-term vision, and cultivate the resilience required to navigate uncertainty and high-stakes environments. By the end of the year, readers will have practiced a complete system of personal excellence, team building, strategy and execution, entrepreneurship and innovation, and philosophy and meaning-forming a holistic, values-driven approach to leadership that is sustainable and scalable. This is not a book to read once and shelve; it is a working manual to revisit as you grow, lead, and multiply your impact.

The Five Phases of Leadership

In a career that has seen him face coup leaders in his native Ivory Coast and lead some of the most prestigious Western financial institutions, Tidjane Thiam has blazed a trail through African and European politics and business.In a career that has seen him face coup leaders in his native Ivory Coast and lead some of the most prestigious Western financial institutions, Tidjane Thiam has blazed a trail through African and European politics and business.After a childhood in tumultuous west and north Africa, Thiam broke barriers in the elitist world of French higher education, becoming one of the first black consultants at McKinsey and Company before entering the Ivorian government. After a coup forced him into exile, he joined the world of finance, where his rise saw him named as CEO of Prudential in London and Credit Suisse in Zurich. Along the way, he was trained and supported by many both in the public and private sector who made his many achievements as a leader possible. However, his rise to prominence as the only African, black and Muslim boss of large Western corporations was also accompanied with disproportionate public and media scrutiny, as well as racism and xenophobia.A blend of autobiography, business, politics, and personal philosophy, his book offers a unique vantage point on corporate and political life in Africa, Europe, the United States and Asia. In a story that spans from his father's politically motivated imprisonment to the business principles that took Thiam to the top of global finance, he shares a personal and professional story that is equal parts inspirational and aspirational.

A Memoir

Without Prejudice

It's Not too Late to Build Toward a Better Future!Rick Caruso has earned a reputation for being a problem solver--somebody who's not afraid of facing big challenges. From his appointment to Water Commissioner and later Police Commissioner in Los Angeles to his bold real estate ventures, Caruso made the decisions he felt were right, even in the face of staunch adversity. In Its Not Too Late, Caruso shares the lessons he learned from his experiences while offering us all a path forward to a better future. At a time when more importance is placed on choosing sides than actually getting things done (let alone done right), Caruso offers refreshing perspective and will teach you how to let go of false divisions, and instead to embrace the search for actual answers and solutions.Togetherness, brotherhood, sisterhood, faith in each other, respect for each other, the ideals preached in almost every faith on Earth are the way forward, no matter how difficult the climb in front of us may seem. And ultimately, the only way we will get back on that path is for each of us to step up, with integrity, in whatever small way we can: for our kids, for our communities, for our country, and for each other.
