Higher education is undergoing profound change at an unprecedented
pace in today's academic marketplace. These authors have captured
the essence expediting of the critical analysis processes needed to
confront the challenges of academic administration, finance,
student life, technology and other areas in the academic
enterprise. Administrators and academicians nowadays must be able
to make balanced decisions based on a methodology that is
comprehensive, unambiguous, and credible. These authors have
provided this methodology based on their collective experiences in
perhaps the toughest sector of the marketplace - the HBCU sector.
And while HBCU sectors will find this work especially rewarding in
fact all institutions of higher learning can benefit from this
desktop book. Given the recent media coverage about questionable
decision making at institutions of higher learning in Pennsylvania,
New Jersey, Florida and many others around the world, this work and
its research findings can serve as an alternative resource for
meeting institutional challenges, approaching them with sequential
structure, getting key stakeholders involved in the process, and
formulating recommendations for future arbitration. The action
research process, for making these tough decisions HEAR and NOW,
provide a collaborative synergy to expeditiously move the process
from a collegial examination of tacit as well as explicit
knowledge. This process certainly supports the wide spread
advocacy--in higher education and other business and governmental
venues--for fostering organizational learning, leveraging of human
capital, institutionalizing human empowerment, and growing learning
communities of practice for success. Finally, this book is driven
by intellectual prisms that often are overshadowed by political
expediency, personal agenda, power positioning and other human
inhibitors that cloud decision making centered from data
authentication, internal consistency, and verifiable collaboration
-- in brief, ""truth"".
