This research sought to describe and explain the perspectives of community college board chairs on their leadership role. In Illinois, the chair is an elected official who has been selected by his or her fellow trustees to fulfill a statutory obligation and to serve the college in a leadership capacity. The renewed interest in board governance and leadership has created a need for more study in this area. Three community college chairs were selected to participate in this study based on the challenges they faced that included academic affairs, student development, business and finance, internal relations and external relations. A qualitative methodology and multiple-case study design was employed. The following data collection methods were used: interviews, observations, document analysis, field notes, and a reflective journal. The themes that emerged from the data as elements that constituted the chairs' perspective on their leadership role were facilitation, communication, information, participation, expectation, and collaboration. The major theme identified in the data was facilitation. The data demonstrated that each chair acknowledged the importance of a facilitation process; that through the chair's role as a facilitator, the board would be able to achieve success through collaboration, that the chair had to utilize good communication skills, that a satisfactory level of information had to be provided to each board member, that board members must be encouraged to actively participate in college issues; and that the expectations of board members must be expressed openly and honestly. The foremost role of the chair is one of facilitation to ensure that the other themes identified in the data can be fully realized. The findings of this study provide insight into the perspectives of the community college board chair and offer guidance in the practice of leadership in an egalitarian setting.
