The Hermeneutics of Jesuit Leadership in Higher Education should not only be in the hands of academic leaders, leaders of thought, and leadership scholars; it should also be in the hands of CEOs of corporations who are humble enough to learn life lessons and secrets from the wisdom, experiences, and successes of academic emeriti leaders. --Professor Michael Kwanashie, Vice Chancellor of Veritas University, Nigeria Directly from the words of Catholic university presidents, this book provides insights from their leadership experiences in the paradoxical world of Catholic higher education. -- Merylann J. Schuttloffel, Professor of Education, The Catholic University of America, USA. Have you asked yourself if leadership is inherited or learned, situational or static, universal or parochial? In this book, Muoneme addresses these perennial questions via interviews with eight successful college presidents and administrators. I believe that aspiring and current educational leaders can learn a great deal from Muoneme's keen insights. -- Gregory Konz, S.J., Jesuit Community Administrator, Georgetown University
