b. Assess/Collect Data Regarding Where You Are:

What’s Working and What’s Not? In this step, goals need to be established. It is impossible to make improvements if one

does not know what to improve, so the next logical step is to investigate the needs of the institution and put it on paper.

These can be patterned after the three main goals which were mentioned earlier.

c. Determine What You Believe Fundamentally as an Organization and Decide What You [Would] Like to Become:

When the needs are established, what is desired

should be written in the context of a goal, within the guidelines

of the organization’s philosophies and beliefs. This step should

address the more detailed goals, specifically targeting a area

that needs improvement.

d. Do Your Homework:

Investigate Research-Based

Philosophies and Program: In this step, it is crucial for the

leaders to investigate what has worked in the past for other

institutions, what is in the books, and what could work best for

the needs of that institution calls for.

e. Establish a Plan of Action:

This final step before

implementation of the changes is obviously making a plan of

action. Once the leaders have studies what could work best for

the school, the next step is to work out a plan that would be

implemented in an organized, sequential manner.
