Abstract
38 narratives where academic teachers describe
interactions with a formal leader in matters related to teaching
have been analysed. The analysis, which is supported by a
theoretical framework on power, reveals that power is
experienced both as positive and as negative. Ideas for further
research on power in higher education are discussed.
