Guiding schools through significant change is one of the toughest
challenges educational leaders face, but learning from the examples
of those who have succeeded can make it less daunting. In Leading
Change in Your School, distinguished author and researcher Douglas
B. Reeves offers lessons learned through his work with educators in
thousands of schools around the world and presents real-life
examples of leaders who have met the challenge of change
head-on-with impressive results for their schools and districts.
Readers will also find practical resources for engaging their
colleagues in change initiatives. Expanding on a number of his
columns in the journal Educational Leadership, Reeves offers
insights ad recommendations in four areas: Creating conditions for
change, including assessments to determine personal and
organizational readiness for change. Planning change, including
cautionary notes about strategic planning. Implementing change,
including the importance of moving from rhetoric to day-to-day
reality. Sustaining change, including the need to reorient
priorities and values so that individual convenience gives way to a
shared sense of the greater good. The change leaders-both teachers
and administrators-whose stories Reeves tells come from varied
districts, but they share a passion for creating schools that work
for all students. They are, Reeves says, ""people like you, sharing
similar challenges but perhaps with different results.
