By examining partnerships across departments, divisions, institutions, school districts, local businesses, and nonprofits, the book demonstrates how intentionally embedded collective action can benefit all stakeholders and help to solve large-scale challenges such as student transfer. The case studies reveal both the unique obstacles each institution faces in building and sustaining these partnerships, and the broader patterns that emerge across them. In closing, the authors distil lessons from the study into a practical blueprint for other institutions seeking to create and sustain thriving ecosystems that support student success.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEssential reading for community college administrators and faculty, as well as scholars in higher education, organizational studies, and educational leadership.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHeather Adams\u003c\/b\u003e is a Consultant of Transfer and Learner Mobility in Higher Education and Principal of Sova.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJessica M.
