The Authentic Leadership Veil with Dr. Shellyann Scott

Who's that Leader in the Mirror? This week I am so excited to share my conversation with Dr. Shelleyann Scott and her insights on leadership in higher education. We discuss problematic leadership and the negative impact of neoliberalism in creating constructive and deconstructive leadership in higher education … the challenges, do’s, and taboos … and that is just the tip of the iceberg. Make sure to tune in!
