Abstract: Abstract In the global economy of the early twenty-first century, ‘knowledge societies’—those that constantly develop new ideas, technologies, methods, products, and services—are crucial for future prosperity. In order to meet these challenges, institutions of higher education are seeking new ways to further connect their faculty, students, and outside communities in a strategic way where ideas flow, new initiatives blossom, flexibility abounds, and global reputations expand (Wood 2006, p. 1).
