Summary/Abstract: Universities are organizations that have to face their own challenges. This is obviously true of any organization. However in some higher education contexts universities continue to be expected to know the answers to those challenges as they are made up of experts in many fields, including leadership, management and organizational performance. There is a relatively rich literature documenting issues related to universities as organizations and the way they can address those challenges. There is also an understanding of the fact that higher education evolves through its institutions, practices and processes at some paces in global contexts and at different ones in local contexts in spite of a relatively unifying public discourse.
