Resource Allocation Study

Sinopse

Resource Allocation Study investigates the crucial link between school funding, resource distribution, and student achievement, addressing whether current systems provide equitable opportunities for all students. The book examines both the fairness of resource allocation across different schools and student populations (equity) and how effectively schools use their resources to improve student outcomes (efficiency). Understanding these aspects is vital for developing strategies to enhance educational outcomes. 

 
The study argues that equitable and efficient resource allocation is essential for closing achievement gaps. It challenges the idea that simply increasing funding is sufficient, advocating for targeted resource allocation to address specific school and student needs. 

 
Presenting evidence from fiscal reports, achievement data, and case studies, the book progresses from defining key terms and outlining the history of school finance policies to analyzing resource inputs and their impact on educational processes. Finally, the book synthesizes findings and offers policy recommendations for promoting greater equity and efficiency in school resource allocation. 

 
This approach provides a framework for analyzing resource allocation decisions applicable from individual schools to entire states, making it a valuable resource for educational researchers, policymakers, and school administrators.

Answering the Ultimate Question...

Richard Owen, Laura L. Brooks

"Would you recommend this company to your friends and colleagues?"  That's the ultimate question. Fred Reichheld's book of the  same name created quite a stir in 2006. Reichheld is co-founder  along with Owen and Brooks of the methodology behind answering the  question. The original book challenged the conventional wisdom of  customer satisfaction surveys and coined the terms "bad profits"  and "good profits." It pointed to a faster, much more accurate way  of gauging customers real feelings about a company, and a  quantitative measure (Net Promoter Score) for establishing a  baseline and effectively tracking changes going forward.   This book tells how  based on a multitude of real cases   to actually install and embed Net Promoter discipline in  organizations of all stripes. As such, it is a natural follow-on to  The Ultimate Question, and will appeal to those with  strategic and tactical business responsibilities. Brooks has a  treasure trove of examples and case-study findings from the more  than 80 companies she has helped put CEM and Net Promoter  disciplines in place. Several of these will be explored in the  book, and the book's proscriptions are all informed by results  extracted from those cases.

Running with Grace - A Wall...

Lori Van Dusen

A 2023 Wall Street Journal Bestseller
Nothing about Lori Van Dusen’s childhood indicated she’d become one of the nation’s top independent financial advisors. She was born prematurely on the wrong side of the tracks and with a genetic blood disorder. Her parents divorced when she and her twin brother were less than a year old. But her big, boisterous, loving Italian family, led by her beloved grandfather, a first-generation American with only an eighth-grade education, taught her that the only limitations in life are those we impose on ourselves.
As a young person, Lori wanted to sing on Broadway, not manage money on Wall Street. But in 1986, this quiet, serious young woman walked into the rough-and-tumble, eat-what-you-kill world of Shearson Lehman Brothers and never looked back. She fought her way to the top by thinking outside the box and working her ass off despite the jeers, insults, and sideways glances. Her secret weapon? A need to prove herself so strong she could outwork anyone.
But Lori’s trajectory to the top was not a straight, upward line; it was a rollercoaster. She hit the pinnacle of success only to have it ripped away in a legal battle with one of the biggest banks in the world. She was raped by a PhD candidate at Harvard, swindled by a business partner, and battled two life-altering medical diagnoses. None of that, though, would compare to having the two people she loved most in the world taken way too soon.
Despite the fear and pain, Lori remained hopeful and resilient. In this memorable, poignant, and inspiring memoir, she shares her lowest lows and highest highs as well as hard-earned wisdom from her bumpy personal, professional, and spiritual journey. Life was never meant to be fair, she learned, but we must keep running with grace if we are to find purpose and joy in the face of adversity.
