Education Partnerships and Business Alliances Article
Education Channel Partner published a story I wrote about partnerships for companies that serve the education market. Whether you are a textbook publisher, an education technology developer, a fellow management consultant, or a reseller/dealer I hope you will find some useful ideas in the article.

It draws on my experiences at Apple, Chancery, Pearson, and Harcourt.
