Abstract

Within the global community, the only constant is change. In Spring 2020, as COVID-19 became a global pandemic, countries closed their borders and closed schools, businesses, and governments. Universities that already had significant online presences and available courses/programs could be reassured that at least some of their programming would continue with minimal interruption. Effective university leaders were able to identify paths forward for their institutions that encompassed their education and were much more able to support faculty, staff, and students with the abrupt change. The authors look at professors as learning leaders, the leadership in higher education institutions, as well as leadership in the private sector. They examine how andragogical leadership can be utilized to shift current educational practices and consider how we might shape learning environments in order to foster more robust learning environments. But essentially, they explain how education leaders develop and organize institutional learning as technology continues to play an essential role.
