Recipe For Change






First, pour a truckload of evidence into an
ungreased container.
Next, stir in a dash of inspiration.
Add two heaping portions of administrative
imperatives.
Fold into the mix a layer of resentment, tradition,
and habit.
Finally, dump into the mix precisely one ton of fear.
Bring to Boil.
If this recipe were effective, then
change leadership would not be the
single greatest challenge for
organizations around the world – not
only in education, but also in
business, government, professional
practices, and nonprofit
organizations.
(Reeves 2009)
We Need To Change Our Thinking







Public support for schools has fallen.
Competition in the marketplace strains
relationships.
New learning paradigms are evolving.
Technology is changing our delivery model.
Legislative changes are continuous and
pervasive.
Expectations for student performance are
escalating.
Funds are continuing to shrink.
We Need to Tell Our Story

Affirm the strength, stability, and positive impact
of the Genesee County K-12 educational system.

Establish a brand message and image for the
promotional campaign.

Begin the conversation with a calendar of topics
and themes.

Develop tools and resources to share with our
local districts.
Promoting Public Education

The Future of Schools (Communities)

More diverse

Different values

Different perceptions

New technologies

New requirements

New legislation
….for a future we cannot describe
