The Learning Organization 1. Today's problems come from yesterday's "solutions."
2. The harder you push, the harder the system pushes back.
3. Behavior grows better before it grows worse.
4. The easy way out usually leads back in.
5. The cure can be worse than the disease.
6. Faster is slower.
7. Cause and effect are not closely related in time and space.
8. Small change can produce big results - but the areas of highest leverage are often the least obvious.
9. You can have your cake and eat it too - but not at once.

must be recognized as important
must act as stewards for all students
are lifelong learners 2. Students:
need to be in a system that nutures ALL their capabilities 3. Parents:
are a very important part of the learning classroom The Learning School: Stakeholders:
students
parents
teachers
support staff
principal
superintendent
school board
community members
local, state, & national government
To change:
1. Change is only sustainable if it involves learning.
2. Change starts small and grows organically.
3. Pilot groups are the incubators for change.
4. Significant change raises two questions:
Where are we going?
What are we here for?
5. Successful change takes place through multiple layers of leadership.
6. Challenges are a natural part of organizational change.
***Always start with "Systems Thinking" The Learning Community: "It takes a village to raise a child." 1. Define your community and assemble a core group.
2. Survey the community.
3. Engage the community. Learn to listen and not speak. As a school leader, where do I begin? A few entry points for change: Creating a learning classroom
A teacher begins in his classroom and then moves to "find a partner" Systems thinking in the classroom
