Inhaltsangabe

After serving for 15 years as a university professor and nonprofit administrator, Denver-based Somerville resumed her career in library and information science in 2003. She was armed with new insights into organizational life and leadership approaches that could be used to design workplace environments rich in information access and exchange, and strengthened by dialogue and reflection opportunities. This knowledge came from a range of sources, including soft systems methodology tools from England, participatory design philosophy from Sweden, and leadership research literatures from Japan, Australia, and the US. She combines these findings in a concise text offering library leaders case study examples from California Polytechnic State U., San José State U., and the U. of Colorado which demonstrate the effectiveness of collaborative information practices built on inclusive leadership principles.
