Abstract
Most professionals are concerned with maintaining currency in their fields, contributing to the professional literature, and developing their careers. The pressures and constraints of a middle managerial position in an academic setting—with divergent reward systems and uncertain possibilities of academic and/or administrative career advancement—present unique challenges and rewards to the incumbent in such a position.
