Where Love Leads

<P><B>A higher education innovator identifies a surprising element missing in today's leadership</B></P><P>Over the course of her remarkable career in American higher education, Mary Dana Hinton has accumulated a great store of wisdom, applicable not just to her own field but to all walks of life. Hinton's unexpected contention in this accessible and uplifting book is that the essential component of all effective leadership is, of all things, love. Part memoir and part leadership theory, <I>Where Love Leads</I> reveals how Hinton's lived experience as a person from the margins led her to explore and implement love as her guiding principle in leadership practice. Assessing the challenges currently facing higher education, Hinton shows that it is only within a framework of love that one can effectively forge ahead, and she contends that effective leaders of the future will embrace love as their chief compass. For those seeking encouragement, inspiration, and honesty as they struggle to lead in uncertain times, this book offers a practical way forward.</P>
