Table of ContentsReviewsIn Stakeholder Engagement: Improving Education through Multi-Level Community Relations, Tran, Smith, and Buckman have produced an edited volume of original empirical and theoretical contributions that will now serve as a milestone in the literature on stakeholder engagement for public K-12 schools and higher education institutions. Written for both practitioners and researchers, this book goes to the heart of the interlocking set of stakeholder challenges that leaders must understand and resolve in order to move their organizations forward. Accessible and yet rich in scholarship and research, Tran, Smith, and Buckman have given us a work that will inexorably drive readers to the recognition that facilitation and support of stakeholder engagement will be a critical factor in determining whether the schools, colleges, and universities of tomorrow are truly preparing students for the future or simply accommodating the status quo. Highly recommended. Perhaps one of the most challenging aspects of school leadership from P-12 through higher education is how to effectively involve and honor the multiple stakeholder voices with different perspectives and agenda. In two significant arcs, Stakeholder Engagement: Improving Education through Multi-Level Community Relations addresses the complexities of stakeholder engagement and building authentic relationships from P-12 to Higher Education. Covering a wide range of critical topics from financial support of the community to the importance of shared vision--P-12, to the role of engaging rural communities and industry stakeholders--Higher Education, this work substantiates the importance of stakeholder involvement in all levels of education. As such this book serves as a useful tool for any leadership course that seeks to explore stakeholder involvement. As a compilation of nine research studies and one book review, Stakeholder Engagement: Improving Education through Multilevel Community Relations presents clear evidence that educational leaders who listen to and consider stakeholder voices when making decisions can improve student outcomes and build coalitions of support.
