Because schools must operate in a changing environment, educators
must manage change whether they wish to or not. Administrators must
plan accordingly, and the best plans spring from a solid
theoretical base. This comprehensive handbook provides that base.
Sybouts draws on systems theory to develop effective approaches to
strategic and operational planning in education. The text evolved
from case studies of successful planning in local school districts
and from a national survey of education faculty. Sybouts emphasizes
that the human dimension of educational planning is paramount, and
that leadership and vision are essential to the effective
management of change. The volume begins with a rationale for
improved planning in educational administration. Sybouts then
lucidly explains the fundamentals of systems theory and provides a
theoretical frame for the rest of the book. He turns his attention
to strategic and operational planning and explores the relationship
between the two. He then discusses key planning techniques,
including trend analysis, mathematical projections, and flow
charts. The book closes with practical guidelines on how to manage
change and implement planning in school systems. This handbook is a
valuable reference for administrative planners and education
professionals and is a ready source of both theoretical and
practical information.
