NACCE Partners with Global Executive Forum Entrepreneurs to Help Community College Executives Thrive

The National Association for Community College Entrepreneurship (NACCE) has launched a partnership with Global Executive Forum Entrepreneurs (GEFE). GEFE is a professionally facilitated peer executive group that uses unique, in-house developed tools and methods to help entrepreneurs more effectively run their business. In addition, GEFE helps executives leading community colleges with the issues they are facing in running their individual college. It has been proven successful in helping individuals regularly get several solid options provided by the other peer executives in the group that the presenter can decide to implement immediately to solve problems they are facing to run their businesses more effectively and profitably.

“We are looking to engage a small cohort of senior leaders, 8-12 executives from the NACCE network, to meet monthly to discuss issues, provide recommendations to solve challenges, and create accountability and community,” said Scott Pharis, co-founder of GEFE.

While NACCE offers its membership multiple different ways to engage and network throughout the year, this peer executive group presents the unique opportunity for a long-term, closely knit collaborative group of executives who are all faced with similar challenges.

“Leading a community college in this time of profound change and challenge requires an entrepreneurial mindset, robust tools, and strong partnerships. NACCE is delighted to join forces with GEFE as a benefit to our members. We believe this partnership with GEFE will present NACCE member executives a place to share what they’ve learned while both navigating challenges and celebrating successes, and ultimately help them hone their leadership skills,” stated Rebecca Corbin, Ed.D, CEO and President of NACCE.
