Abstract
Due to unprecedented numbers of retirements, community colleges are facing a crisis of senior leadership. Solving the crisis requires the examination of alternative labor pools, including current faculty ranks who have had some leadership exposure, including leaders from faculty governance bodies. The current study examined the extent to which faculty senate leadership provides the necessary exposure to the skills required for ascension to a presidency along with the preparation to accept and succeed in various roles. Study findings reveal that presidents see faculty senate leadership as more of a preparation than existing faculty senate leaders, and that the roles of advocacy, negotiation, and evaluation are central to the senior leadership position.
