This is the question that the 3rd edition of the State of the Mobile and Responsive Web in Higher Ed survey report answers in a 12-page document including results and charts.

This open and independent research work is supported by Higher Ed Experts . When you buy a pass to our online events like the upcoming Higher Ed Responsive Websites Summit or you sign up for our Responsive Web Design online course, you also help fund this kind of work. So, thank you! :-) .

In higher education, decisions are often based on traditions, opinions or hunches. Benchmarking data is not easy to collect, but everybody wins if its spread widely.

This is why Im asking you to share this research with your professional network. A like, a tweet, a +1 or LinkedIn share will automatically give you access to the 12-page report (PDF) so you can download or print it.

Dear Carnegie Coach:

I have recently been promoted to the Sales Manager within my company.  One thing I noticed while working with the company was the lack recurring business I would get from my clients.  In my past jobs we always went out of our way to follow up with our customers.  Do you have any suggestions for how I can make sure that my sales team is following up with and staying connected with our customers?

I read my fair share of books about digital marketing, web design, content strategy, social media, business and communication. If a non-fiction book doesnt fall into these pre-defined reading buckets, it usually wont cross my path.

But, its been impossible to ignore Sheryl Sandbergs book, Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead, since its launch a few weeks ago.
