Abstract: This session will provide an overview of Best Practices in the Management and Leadership of Remote Academic Enterprises, defined as academic organizations operating both in the physical realm and in the virtual cloud with dispersed and remote employees. As we have witnessed the growth of virtual working and learning environments, traditional and nontraditional academic and non-academic institutions alike have embraced concepts and working arrangements such as shared-time, hoteling, and telecommuting. Those charged with the management and leadership of such enterprises with modern work arrangements are best served by a review of research-based practices presented in this session.
