We are happy to announce that HERDSA has now published the guide on 'Leading Academic Networks'. This guide supported by the NATA, developed by HERDSA and authored by Shelda Debowski, is a valuable resource for those with an active role or potential interest in taking up a leadership role within Academic Associations. More information about the guide can be found here and to order a copy of the guide visit the HERDSA website http://www.herdsa.org.au/?page_id=35
Shelda Debowski also developed a concise document on leading academic networks which focuses on three phases of the network leadership cycle; 1. Getting started as a network leader, 2. Leading your academic network, 3. Concluding your leadership role.
