Reviews
As a champion of entrepreneurship in higher education, I found?Transforming Higher Education?to be a compelling call to action. The real-world case examples from small rural colleges to large urban institutions underscore that all colleges have the capacity to turn challenge into opportunity with innovative action and bold leadership. -- Dr. Rebecca Corbin * President & CEO of the National Association of Community College Entrepreneurship (NACCE) * This practical examination of institutions that are leveraging the opportunities in front of higher education showcases innovative ways for all of us to remain viable, faithful to our mission, and relevant to those we serve. -- Dr. Terry Allcorn * President of Kentucky Christian University * Higher education's evolution demands entrepreneurial leaders to think and act faster, adapt swiftly, and innovate boldly—not just to thrive, but to survive in a rapidly changing landscape. -- Rufus Glasper, PhD * President and CEO, League for Innovation in the Community College * The financial landscape of higher education has changed. The expectation is to become more market-aligned resulting in greater value for our students and our communities but also making institutions subject to the market. If you plan to lead in higher education, this book is a must read. -- Monty Sullivan * President, Louisiana Community and Technical College System *
