IBM and the Reinvention of High School (C): Toward P-TECH's Rapid National Expansion
By: Rosabeth Moss Kanter and Kelsi Stine-Rowe
Abstract
In early 2016, Stanley Litow, IBM's Vice President of Corporate Citizenship and Corporate Affairs and President of the IBM International Foundation, made his travel arrangements for still another flight from New York to discuss possibilities for application of a new model for high school called P-TECH, for Pathways in Technology Early College High School, the name of the first school in Brooklyn. In the past month alone, he had flown to Little Rock, Arkansas, to meet with Republican governor Asa Hutchinson and to Providence, Rhode Island, to meet with Democratic governor Gina Raimondo to discuss bringing a P-TECH model to their states.
