Abstract
Implementing diversity agendas at dispersed, loosely connected, and change-resistant institutions such as colleges and universities is a global concern. To create the essential transformation for a diversity agenda to thrive, a shift in the organizational environment and culture is required. Higher education experts have long recognised leadership styles as one of the most essential contributing aspects to successful institutional transformation and specifically during technological time (IoT), particularly when it comes to diversity agenda initiatives. This chapter reviews the literature on various types of diversity agendas, change paradigms due to change in technology, and leadership styles by synthesising data from 10 case studies on successful strategies and providing implications for how diverse leadership styles might be employed to fuel the institutional diversity effort.
