Dr. Jeff M. Allen

Welcome to my web portal! – Since 1996

I work alongside my colleagues to prepare students for careers that have yet to be created, guided by an innovative approach to advancing scholarship. My focus is on generating, integrating, and sharing research, as well as teaching and providing service in workforce innovation within the evolving global knowledge economy.

To ensure my students are prepared for the challenges of this dynamic environment, I attempt to seamlessly integrate my research into my teaching. This integration provides students with hands-on experience in reading, interpreting, and creating new theories and practices that drive workforce innovation. By connecting classroom learning with real-world applications, I help students transition smoothly from theoretical knowledge to practical implementation in the global workforce.

Collaboration is central to my academic work. As a faculty member, I have partnered with numerous authors to contribute to the scholarly literature on human resource development, knowledge management, and workforce development. Through these efforts, I aim to advance knowledge and equip future leaders with the tools needed to thrive in an increasingly innovative and interconnected world.
