ABSTRACT Higher education has seen a shift that means its leaders are no longer only being recruited and perceived as senior academics who lead teaching and research. Leaders are now sometimes recruited and viewed as managers who oversee the operation of their institution, college, faculty, or school. This paper analyses the initial findings of an international cross-institutional project focusing on the emotional labour and personal toll experienced by university leaders taking on these changing roles. The study begins by using largely unpublished interview data from 2004, and combines these findings with interviews from current university leaders conducted in 2019. Thirty-five interviews were carried out with participants ranging from university Vice-Chancellors to deputy heads of schools. The paper examines existing literature of the changing shape of higher education leadership and contrasts it with how university leaders view the largely unsustainable emotional labour and toll required to carry out their work..

管理学界对高等教育领导者的情感劳动和代价

摘要 高等教育已经发生了转变,这意味着其领导者不再只是被招募和被视为领导教学和研究的高级学者。领导者现在有时被招募并被视为管理其机构、学院、教职员工或学校运作的经理。本文分析了一项国际跨机构项目的初步调查结果,该项目侧重于大学领导承担这些不断变化的角色所经历的情绪劳动和个人损失。该研究首先使用了 2004 年大部分未发表的访谈数据,并将这些发现与 2019 年对现任大学领导进行的访谈相结合。 对从大学副校长到学校副校长的参与者进行了 35 次访谈。
