Abstract: | Effective contemporary leadership in tertiary education is crucial for navigating the complex
challenges that institutions face in the globalized world. This abstract explores the global
stakeholders' viewpoint on leadership in tertiary education, emphasizing the need for
adaptability, inclusivity, and innovation. In the rapidly evolving landscape of higher education,
leaders must demonstrate adaptability to meet the diverse needs of students, faculty, and
the broader community. This requires a nuanced understanding of cultural, technological, and
pedagogical shifts. Inclusivity becomes paramount as leaders strive to create environments
that celebrate diversity and foster equitable opportunities for all stakeholders. Global
perspectives underscore the importance of cultivating a collaborative and culturally sensitive
leadership approach, acknowledging the interconnectedness of education across borders.
Furthermore, effective contemporary leaders in tertiary education must embrace innovation
to address emerging challenges and capitalize on opportunities. This involves leveraging
technology, incorporating interdisciplinary approaches, and fostering a culture of continuous
improvement. Stakeholders worldwide emphasize the significance of visionary leadership
that goes beyond traditional paradigms, encouraging creative problem-solving and forwardthinking strategies. Global stakeholders advocate for leadership that goes beyond
administrative roles, emphasizing the cultivation of a shared vision that aligns with the
evolving needs of society. Leaders should engage in strategic planning, leverage data-driven
decision-making, and prioritize sustainability to ensure the long-term success and relevance
of tertiary education institutions. Effective contemporary leadership in tertiary education, as
viewed by global stakeholders, requires adaptability, inclusivity, and innovation. Leaders must
navigate the complexities of a globalized world, embracing diversity, fostering collaboration |
