As institutions face challenges from technological advancements, demographic shifts, and global competition, effective governance structures and leadership development becomes critical when navigating these challenges.

By sharing research, practical strategies, and personal experiences, the book offers solutions for education administrators to navigate complex challenges in the evolving educational landscape. This book covers topics such as educational technology, ethics and law, and social science, and is a useful resource for education professionals, administrators, policy makers, computer scientists, sociologists, academicians, and researchers.
