About
BUSINESS & HIGHER EDUCATION
Business partnerships can look nearly identical on paper-and produce very different results in practice. What makes the difference?
Drawing on original doctoral research, Bridging the Divide gives university leaders, board members, faculty, and industry partners a practical framework for collaborating with business while preserving the purpose of higher education.
INSIDE, YOU'LL FIND
• The Bridge Model: a four-link framework connecting strategy, pedagogy, and graduate outcomes
• A red-flag checklist for recognizing partnerships that should not move forward
• Five board-level questions to uncover problems before they surface
• A four-row dashboard focused on what predicts success
Build stronger partnerships. Protect the mission. Create lasting value.
