Checking what is the current model and finding ways to improve it.
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.
