How to Succeed in a Higher Ed Career (Disclaimer: No Guarantees!)

Abstract

I write this from different perspectives than my other colleagues in this book. While many of my colleagues spent their entire careers at one college, I actually taught at three different schools. I have faced the challenges of teaching business courses at a state technical college for ten years, teaching management at a moderately sized liberal arts institution for 11 years, and am currently teaching marketing at a small institution that features both liberal arts and business studies. Each institution has presented its own set of challenges and rewards. I have moved to each institution for different reasons.
