Book excerpt: "Narratives of Becoming Leaders in Disciplinary and Institutional Contexts provides theoretically-informed personal narratives of nine emerging and established leaders in learning and teaching in Australia, Brazil, Canada, Trinidad and Tobago, the UK and the USA. The academics' narratives consider how individuals navigate the disciplinary and institutional context as emergent and established leaders in learning and teaching. These learning and teaching leadership narratives highlight the commonalities and differences in the struggles that academic leaders encounter within their unique national contexts, and discipline. The journeys of learning and teaching leadership are often fuzzy owing to lack of well-established structures and pathways. This book seeks to contribute to our understanding of the impact of disciplinary and institutional contexts on the practice of these learning and teaching leaders. It captures the subjective experiences of academics at various stages in their career, navigating their individual pathways of learning and teaching leadership."--
