James Marshall:
Professor,
Thought Partner, and Author.
Learning Program & Initiative Implementation Expert
New for Fall 2024
I’m excited about this book that jumps right into the middle of education program crises and helps leaders find the right fixes.
We see programs changing lives every day. Given that amazing potential, we need them to perform at their very best.
This quick, straightforward book focuses on common crises and provides the tools to move your initiative from “dive to thrive.”
And… Coming in Early 2025
Jim Marshall’s life-long work lies at the intersection of people and the organizations in which they work…
…and optimizing the synergy that fertile convergence holds. His scholarship, teaching, and consulting combine our understanding of human performance and organization development to assess strengths, devise strategy, and improve even the most vexing of challenges. His evaluation endeavors are particularly significant and include more than 250 individual studies of funded projects and program investments totaling over $150 million dollars.
As a thought partner to schools, districts, non-profits, governments, and education- and training-focused organizations, Marshall’s unique approach relies on a proven mix of assessment and evaluation, appreciative inquiry, and empathic understanding that predictably yields quantifiable results.
