Vorwort Explores how individuals navigate to leadership positions in learning and teaching within the disciplinary and institutional context. Zusammenfassung Narratives of Becoming Leaders in Disciplinary and Institutional Contexts provides theoretically informed personal narratives of nine emerging and established leaders in learning and teaching in Australia, Brazil, Canada, Trinidad and Tobago, the UK and the USA. The academics’ narratives consider how individuals navigate the disciplinary and institutional context as emergent and established leaders in learning and teaching. These learning and teaching leadership narratives highlight the commonalities and differences in the struggles that academic leaders across the world encounter within their unique institutional and disciplinary contexts. The journeys of learning and teaching leadership are often fuzzy owing to lack of well-established structures and pathways which may be further complicated by the unique institutional and disciplinary contexts. This book contributes to our understanding of the impact of disciplinary and institutional contexts on the practice of learning and teaching leaders. It captures the subjective experiences of academics at various stages in their career, navigating their individual pathways of learning and teaching leadership within their national context.
