Leaders' Perspective on DE

I have just read an interesting ph.d-dissertation about distance education and leaders’ perspective.

Hummell uses a qualitative approach to focus on the leaders perspectives, theoretical foundation, professional background, personal preferences and the institutional demographic.

The study shows that leaders in DE focus on teamwork, communication, organizational change, and lifelong learning in their work as leaders.
