Leading a Continuously Improving System

A High Performing System requires a steadfast leadership commitment to build and sustain the organization’s “backbone” for improvement. Too often, powerful efforts to improve get siloed in our large, wickedly human systems. Attempts to scale what is learned get blocked by isolating structures and daily routines building hidden barriers. Good people unconsciously trapped in layered systems of fragmented initiatives. The result is often wasted resources, exhausted staff members, and lost kids. The Evidence Based Leadership (EBL) framework creates the system “backbone” to leverage and “hardwire” efforts that make improvement stick. Leaders learn how to align improvement decisions to what is valued, build leader capacity, unleash the power of their teams, and streamline limited resources. Learn from a leader who has navigated this journey. See the results teams from across the country learning how to align their systems, improve outcomes and restore hope for their students, families, and communities.
