Community College Leaders on Workforce Development
Author: William J. RothwellPublisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1475827431
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 179
Book Description
This book has two things going for it that are rarely combined—it is fundamentally purposeful and it is useful. As the authors point out, there is a trilogy of needs confronting any business leader with a change agenda and/or transitioning into a new top role: influence, coalition building, and performance consulting. Of the three, performance consulting has received the least amount of attention in both the public and private-sector businesses. Because the focus on performance consulting rests primarily on the worker and the workplace environment, the authors contend that we must have a picture of how that environment has changed over the years. In this book, visionary leaders of community colleges will present their views about the present challenges and future approaches needed for community colleges to be successful.

Book Description
Many people who work in Workforce Development in Community Colleges have not had the benefit of courses or a degree program in Workforce Development. For that reason, when they join a community college, they often need a primer on the purpose, goals and nature of workforce development. This book is intended for that purpose. It can help newly-hired community college staff members, administrators, and even board of trustees members on the important workforce development mission of a community college.
