Dynamic Leadership: Moving HBCUs Toward New Ontologies of Organizational Development
Abstract
This chapter focuses on the need for new ontologies and methodologies as it relates to Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and their competitiveness on a global educational landscape, particularly as they try to maintain high standards of excellence in student enrollment and involvement, research and educational opportunities, and most importantly, in funding. HBCUs, despite their rich history and legacy, have come under some harsh criticism in the past, but more recently, the issues have related to fiscal mismanagement and to organizational structure problems. This chapter explores the constructs of alignment of strategy, understanding of organizational culture, promotion of empowerment, and development of organizational trust as they relate to the HBCU environment and how these factors can relate to increased positive visibility and funding opportunities for these institutions. Leadership in these environments has to be both transformational and authentic, focusing on new ways to bring partnerships, innovation, and collaborative leadership to the institution.
