Abstract

This leadership development approach revolves around a set of competencies of highly effective senior leaders in higher education, developed in consultation with university presidents and vice presidents, former American Council on Education (ACE) Fellows, and others. The Class of 1999-2000 ACE Fellows, aspiring senior leaders in higher education, used these outcomes to assess their knowledge and skills, to plan learning activities to address identified gaps, and to document their learning during the Fellowship. Reflecting, developing, and documenting their leadership using the outcomes promotes continuing leadership development of Fellows upon return to their campuses and throughout their careers.
