The gap between institutional ambition, resources, and performance
is what prompted Richard Alfred and his authors to develop this
book. It is written at a time when community colleges are facing
problems with increasing demand and limited resources that have
forced them to search for efficiency and new ways of supporting
growth. The purpose of Community Colleges on the Horizon is to open
up a new way of thinking about institutional growth and development
and leadership and management based on the concept of
abundance-elevating dynamics in institutions that lead to
extraordinary performance and outcomes that surpass expectations.
The authors describe different circumstances colleges will find
themselves in as a function of their leadership, their resources
(both tangible and intangible), and the capabilities of their
staff. This book is not for the complacent; it is not for those who
are unwilling to look openly at their institutions. It will be most
useful for those who believe their institution can and should do
better, for those who prefer action to words, for those who are
unafraid to challenge convention, for those who are ready to pursue
opportunity and change, and, ultimately, for those who believe that
their institution has unexploited potential.
