Heather Carpenter is an Assistant Professor at the School of Public, Nonprofit and Health Administration with Grand Valley State University, in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

They also look at how to tie competencies together with the goals of a company, and that 80% of learning for a career happens on a job, and that there can be low cost ways to develop and train employees.
