Abstract | The success of African American men in upper-level administrative leadership roles in higher education is ignored. There are plenty of African American males who are employed in higher education as senior administrators, but their success goes unnoticed. The story of their journeys is often untold or overshadowed by the negative images of their race. There is little research that have explored and identified measures that are utilized by successful African American men in higher education. This mixed method dissertation (quantitative and qualitative) focused on how successful Black men in higher education navigated their pathways to attain upper-level administrative roles in higher education. The purpose of this study was to identify measures that have successfully increased the number of African American men in higher education administrative leadership positions. The study identified methods utilized to attract African American men to careers in higher education; (2) reviewed leadership roles African American males have at post-secondary institutions; (3) examined the challenges and barriers of African American men working in higher education; and (4) explored interventions used by African American men in becoming successful administrators in higher education. The overarching question guiding the research was what pathways and methods African American men utilize to attain upper-level administrative leadership positions within U.S. higher education? The study used mixed methods sequential explanatory design to examine the pathways of successful Black male senior administrators in higher education. The themes that were discovered in the study can be used as a call for action for institutions to make changes that will support and encourage Black men to attain senior leadership roles in higher education. The study can also be used as a blueprint for Black men to navigate the pathways of upper-level leadership roles in higher education.
