2009年6月出版的《管理调查杂志》的“经验反思”部分载有六篇文章,探讨了与当代大学治理有关的挑战,并呼吁采用新的理论和方法。在这篇文章中,我们回应报告一所大学的创新治理设计,提供了一个富有想象力的替代传统的两院制模式的董事会(或董事会)和行政,以及教师参议院。其合作模式利用中等规模、基于能力和具有代表性的联合政策委员会作为制定战略的核心手段。这种替代方法的结果包括更大的信任,更好和更及时的决策,并减少组织内的冲突。我们的结论是,这种方法值得注意的两院制模式的替代方案,管理研究可以帮助提高高等教育治理的研究和实践。
The “Reflections on Experience” section of the June 2009 issue of the Journal of Management Inquiry contained six articles examining the challenges associated with contemporary university governance and called for new theory and approaches. In this article, we respond by reporting one university’s innovative governance design that provides an imaginative alternative to the traditional bicameral model of the board of trustees (or governing board) and administration, and the faculty senate. Its collaborative model utilizes intermediate-sized, competency-based, and representative joint policy committees as the central means of formulating strategy. Outcomes of this alternative approach include greater trust, better and more timely decisions, and a reduction in intraorganizational conflict. We conclude that the approach merits attention as an alternative to the bicameral model and that management studies can help improve higher education governance research and practice.
