| dc.description.abstract | In a rapidly changing higher education environment the role of the academic manager, bridging the academic worlds of teaching and research and the administrative worlds of resource allocation, coordination and control, is seen as critical in ensuring that the institutions they work for achieve their goals. This research study focuses on the world of the Academic Manager, as experienced and perceived within their individual contexts, by a selected number of academic managers working at the University of the Witwatersrand in 2012. Through in depth interviews, the research explores how academic managers are adapting to the changing environment in which they work, the coping strategies they have adopted, the support available to them and the skill sets required. | en_US |
