Beschreibung:
Stacey M. Childress is a senior lecturer in the General Management Unit at Harvard Business School, and a cofounder of the Public Education Leadership Project at Harvard University. She studies entrepreneurial activity in public education in the United States. This includes the behavior and strategies of leadership teams in urban public school districts, charter schools, and nonprofit and for-profit enterprises with missions to improve the public system. Childress is also interested more generally in a range of social enterprise topics, including international social entrepreneurship.
For nearly two decades, education entrepreneurs have been working to transform the K-12 public education system in the United States. The nineteen cases in this book profile entrepreneurs who are pursuing opportunities to create pattern-breaking social change in our public schools--in particular, by creating high-quality educational opportunities for low-income and minority students who are dramatically underserved by the current public education system.
