The role of the mid‐level manager as an organizer, communicator, and problem‐solver in student affairs has been examined within the literature, but current discussion generally excludes the perspective of managers at community colleges. This chapter focuses on the importance of managerial identity and roles, particularly as it is enacted within a community college context. A framework is proposed as a tool for understanding the characteristics of the described managerial selves and how they are perceived by themselves and others.
