Managing for success ‐ perhaps
Abstract
The development of management skills for senior academic librarians has rarely been accorded the attention it deserves, even when the Follett report identified it as an important challenge for the future of libraries. This situation has been a concern for some in the profession and a strategic management programme for senior academic library staff was developed by academic librarians and Aston Business School to respond to this challenge. Outlines the development of the programme, details its contents and discusses the feedback from the programme. Also identifies some of the lessons that have been learnt from the process and the programme about future directions for management development in academic libraries.
