Abstract:

The study aimed at producing a substantive grounded theory of the leadership of academic deans of Centers of Excellence (COEs) in Philippine Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). The classic grounded theory (CGT) method was employed. Fourteen academic deans from various disciplines and regions of the Philippines participated in the study. Participant interviews were used as the primary source of data. Data analysis was performed through CGT coding. The study concluded that shared strategic leading predominantly describes the leadership of academic deans of COEs in the Philippines. Results showed that shared strategic leading is intrinsically influenced by the academic deans’ people skills; extrinsically, by their loyalty to the institution, and experiences in learning leadership. This study recommended that other academic deans be informed of the best shared strategic leadership practices of their colleagues to improve the quality of their academic programs. Further research on academic deanship in the Philippines was also proposed.
