Drawing from a diverse range of expert voices within the field, this key work explores how communities of practice are an effective tool for supporting successful collaboration, whilst also creating the foundations for lasting institutional change.

By examining communities of practice through a variety of critical lenses, this book encourages readers to consider how strategies may be applied within their own institutions to support feelings of belonging, encourage teamwork, and inspire learning. Supported by both practical case studies and current research, contributors suggest strategies that readers can use to create their own effective communities of practice. Chapters explore topics including:



Communities as a method of regeneration within universities
Cultivation of knowledge through community collaboration
Questions of power in transdisciplinary communities
Mapping career pathways through communities of practice

Bringing together theory and practice, this is an essential resource for all involved in strategic planning, organisational development, and fostering a positive organisational culture within higher education.

Camila Devis-Rozental is a Principal Academic in Socio-emotional Intelligence (SEI) and Service Excellence at Bournemouth University, UK. Susanne Rose Clarke is Head of Service Excellence at Bournemouth University, UK.
