Synopsis

The book explores the quantitative study of the leadership practices (Kouzes and Posner, 2002) of the department chairs as perceived by the faculty and the job satisfaction (Spector, 2007) of faculty members at a historically black university located in the State of Mississippi.

The implications of the study resulted in gender differences and ethnicity having a statistical impact on the perceptions of leadership practices of department chairs and job satisfaction of faculty member.
