27
The Challenge of Improvement
  • Social, Economic and New Education Standards are
    impacting schools
  • This requires
  • Immediate and effective action and adjustment
  • Schools need to be adaptive
  • New leadership at every level
  • More empowered people both internal and external
    to the school
  • Ongoing innovation and change not simply a step
  • A rich culture of creativity and initiative
  • Difficult to achieve with traditional approaches,
    which were designed for a more static world.

28
Reasons for Change Fatigue
  • Details Matter General principles are not enough
    to guide effective action.
  • Balancing alignment (common direction) and local
    flexibility is necessary and difficult.
  • Leaders typically act on bold strokes (strategic
    moves) instead of long marches (broad
    implementation)
  • Success takes time initiatives are dropped too
    soon

29
Reasons for Change Fatigue, Cont.
  • Too much focus on content, too little on process
  • Too little effort is devoted to systems design
    and structure

30
Understanding Resistance to Change
  • Myths about change
  • Change will always be met with resistance.
  • It is hard to change peoples behavior.
  • Truths about change
  • Change that inspires fear often also inspires
    resistance.
  • Steps are rarely taken that make it easier for
    people to behave in a more productive way.

31
Why Resistance is Often Rational
  • It is often rational to resist change because
  • Too much is done to people instead of done by
    them.
  • People dont know the purpose or goal of the
    change.
  • People are concerned about future competence.
  • Extra work and time are required.

32
What is needed for change.
33
Coordination is a Process
  • Leaders are working on organizational change to
    make people more effective, innovative and
    productive.
  • Change happens over time by having leaders that
    are more process oriented and less content
    focused.
  • The CSH Leadership Team is key to providing input
    in planning, implementation and sustainability.
