520 $a This study examined the development and continuation of partnerships by an international corporation with multiple institutions of higher education during 1998--2001. These partnerships are created for their employees across cities and countries. The primary purpose of the study was to apply Nixon's Empowerment Model and ascertain best practices.
520 $a The findings of the study are based upon an analysis of pertinent artifacts, on-site observations, and thirteen semi-structured, long interviews with 13 program developers, purposefully selected based upon work experience, from 75 corporate program developers across the United States.
520 $a The following are the major findings from content analyses of this data. First the artifacts and interviews revealed that the major trend was that the company supported employee empowerment at all levels. A second finding was that all program developers and data from corporate statements support the company's vision-development of intellectual capital potential of all employees. In response to this vision, program developers across the country established ongoing partnerships with 365 institutions of higher education as the strategies to reach the vision. Another finding suggested that the company supported partnerships with a variety of higher education institutions because they valued good corporate citizenship.
520 $a Although support of investment in people's education appears on the surface to be the corporate vision, a series of restructuring activities that led to mergers and a reduced workforce during the past decade have left employees doubtful that the vision translates into corporate actions. Company reports indicate that only 2.3% of this company's employees utilize the educational benefits from these partnerships. However, the interviews disclosed corporate needs for personnel development in collaborative leadership, information technology, project management, and systems engineering.
520 $a In response to those needs, the company has altered its decentralized requests for educational benefits and consolidated the requests at the international corporate headquarters. The company allocates unlimited funds for total tuition and partial books/fees. According to the interviews and artifacts, any employee who submits a request to participate in any partnership may do so without direct management approval. It is recommended that business units within the corporation utilize these educational partnerships to promote their department learning goals.
