Academic Leadership in Applied Linguistics and English Language Education: Theory, Research, and Practice explores how academic leadership shapes the development of applied linguistics, English language education, and higher education in an era marked by globalization, digital transformation, and increasing demands for research productivity and international collaboration. The book argues that academic leadership extends beyond administrative authority to include intellectual guidance, research mentorship, curriculum innovation, ethical stewardship, and the ability to build collaborative academic communities. It positions leadership as a crucial force in advancing language education, strengthening research cultures, and responding to contemporary challenges such as multilingualism, language policy, technological change, and global communication.
Combining theoretical discussion with practical application, the book examines major leadership frameworks—including transformational, distributed, servant, adaptive, and ethical leadership—and connects them to research management, strategic decision-making, curriculum development, multicultural and inclusive education, digital innovation, and professional development in academia. It also addresses academic integrity, mentoring, research collaboration, and sustainable leadership, while presenting case studies from Indonesian and international contexts to demonstrate how leadership principles work in real academic settings. The final chapters highlight implications for doctoral education, research development, language policy, and leadership in the age of digital technology and artificial intelligence. Overall, the book is intended for doctoral students, early-career researchers, academic leaders, and scholars seeking a comprehensive understanding of how ethical, reflective, and research-informed leadership can advance applied linguistics and improve language education in local and global contexts.
