Hochschulführung und die dritte Mission: Herausforderungen an akademische Führungskräfte in der unternehmerischen Hochschule Chapter uri icon

abstract

  • Concepts such as the “third mission” or the “entrepreneurial university” increasingly shape academic research and practice. At the same time such concepts pose new challenges to higher education leadership. However, research on higher education leadership is primarily focused on the inner side of the higher education organizations, and the increasing importance of external relations is largely neglected. Against this background, we try to bring together both strands of research, i.e., research on “third mission activities” in the “entrepreneurial university” and research on leadership in higher education. In our article, we employ both psychological leadership concepts and insights from organizational sociology.
