5.0 out of 5 stars Don't whine--do something!, March 13, 2006

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Moving Up in the New Economy: Career Ladders for U.S. Workers (Hardcover)
I think Joan Fitzgerald's book is great and particularly timely. The headlines are legitimately full of the disasters in our economy linked to the new pressures of global competition. Rather than complain or oppose (certainly required--but alone--insufficient), Joan patiently and thoroughly describes the details of an approach that must be the foundation for US education policy at the federal, state and local level. It's a work in progress and Joan provides great information on the ideas, the case studies, and the practitioners. In Chicago and in Illinois, there is a new openness by top leaders in business, government, and labor to new approaches. I'm encouraging them to read Joan's book now.
