Jeffrey L. Buller is the director of Leadership and Professional Development at Florida Atlantic University and a senior partner in ATLAS Leadership Training. He holds a doctorate from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He is the author of thirteen books on academic leadership and numerous articles, including nearly two hundred on higher education administration.

One my greatest surprises as an academic administrator is how often little planning and thought goes into faculty hiring beyond the position advertisement and who is on the search committee. I hope more academic leaders will learn from books like this one just how complex it can be to organize, conduct, and complete a successful faculty search.
