strategies, leadership, and theory;
identities, boundaries, and ways of working;
the impact of blended professionals/integrated practitioners;
career trajectories and developing the integrated practitioner.
The Impact of the Integrated Practitioner in Higher Education is a must-read for anyone interested in the future of higher education, including academic and professional staff, as well as postgraduate students in the field of Education.

"There is so much to recommend in this book. The individual contributions, augmented by the editors' careful synthesis throughout, are a revelation. And its timing is prescient: it makes a critical and welcome contribution to our sector's thinking and theorising as we dare to look hopefully towards a post-pandemic 'better normal'."- Professor Sally Kift PFHEA FAAL ALTF, President Australian Learning and Teaching Fellows and Visiting Professorial Fellow, National Centre for Student Equity in Higher Education, Curtin University, Australia
