A University/Community Partnership to Bridge the Digital Divide

Abstract

Companies want employees with core values who ascribe to corporate values. Emotional intelligence (EQ) is used by companies in recruitment (Foote, 2001), and guides managers in dealing with team performance problems. Similarly, leadership requires refocusing on core values, which over time builds character (Badaracco, 1998). Thus, educational institutions should devote considerable attention to character building (Foote, 2001).
