Fellows
One of the Center's key strategic objectives has been to strengthen the bridge between the corporate and academic worlds. Towards this end, the Center has sponsored many activities to bring together representatives from academia and corporations (and sometimes government and not-for-profit organizations) to encourage thoughtful and productive sharing of knowledge. The appointment of academic fellows has been an important strategy to support this. These appointments are intended to provide academic input and to stimulate the Roundtable, while at the same time providing researchers with the opportunity to interact with work/life practitioners. We are fortunate to have many leaders in the field as fellows of the Center.
Affiliated Faculty
In addition to the Center's full-time staff, there are a number of Boston College (and other University) faculty members who work closely with the Center. These outstanding individuals are doing work in the field that extends the expertise and "reach" of the Center in many interesting ways. Most often, their involvement with CWF involves collaborative research, which may be supported by our members and which we in turn make visible and available to our members. If you are interested in knowing more about the work of our Center Affiliates, please contact the Center.
