Abstract

As schools and districts are seeking to transform to better serve all children in today’s complex world, leaders must ask critical questions about how much of their time is devoted to strategy. Leaders must be absolutely clear about their theory and strategy for change. As a leader, how do you think change happens, and what actions will you take to enact that strategy? The author identifies six design principles that he says are essential for understanding and implementing systems-level change from the classroom to the boardroom: values, governance, resources, content, talent, and culture.
