ABSTRACT

This article discusses the ways that the trends of corporatization and commercialization have changed managerial roles in universities. The authors argue that we have gone too far with these trends and plea for redesigned management roles. Performance measurement systems relying on student polls for teaching and on journal metrics for research support managerial interventions. However, managers also need to acknowledge the autonomy and different capabilities of their staff members in order to get the best results. This article contributes to the debate about desirable management roles in universities in the light of a meaningful academic knowledge production.

新发展：大学管理者在理性与感性之间取得平衡

摘要

本文讨论了公司化和商业化趋势改变大学管理角色的方式。作者认为，我们对这些趋势走得太远，并呼吁重新设计管理角色。绩效衡量系统依靠学生投票进行教学，并依靠期刊指标进行研究支持管理干预。但是，管理人员还需要承认其员工的自主权和不同能力，以便获得最佳结果。鉴于有意义的学术知识生产，本文有助于关于大学中理想的管理角色的辩论。
