Administrators of college and university music units face countless leadership challenges. They are required to manage large budgets that need constant and careful oversight, they maintain communication with their alumni, spearhead seemingly endless fundraising campaigns, recruit faculty and students, explore new learning delivery systems, oversee course offerings, monitor the curriculum, manage office personnel, etc. While these challenges and responsibilities are not singular to music administrators, the ways in which these leaders approach them is unique. The numerous challenges and responsibilities for all higher education administrators can be grouped into four categories or roles: faculty developer, leader, manager, and scholar. To find success, music leaders must expertly balance their roles by showing a strong commitment to developing, sharing and implementing a vision of excellence. The study also presents the results of a survey of the 608 directors and chairs of music units accredited with the National Association of Schools of Music (NASM). These leaders weresurveyed about their responsibilities and how they spend their time and focus their efforts within these roles.
