Why is Leadership Important?
“Everyone is a leader in their
own way because of their
ability to help others.
Leaders come in all ages,
sizes, and colors.
If someone demonstrates
leadership, you can bet they
were once led themselves.”

What is 1st and 2nd order
change? (Waters & Grub, 2004)
1st order change
• Extension of the past
• Within the existing
paradigms
• Consistent with prevailing
values and norms
• Implemented with existing
knowledge and skills
• Incremental
• Implemented by experts
2nd order change
• Break with the past
• Outside of existing
paradigms
• Conflicted with prevailing
values and norms
• Requiring new knowledge
and skills to implement
• Complex
• Implemented by
stakeholders
Leadership for Incremental
and Dramatic Change
First order change
Second order change
• Emphasize relationships
• Establish strong lines of
communication
• Be an advocate for the school
• Provide resources
• Maintain visibility
• Protect teachers from
distractions
• Create culture of collaboration
• Look for and celebrate
successes
• Shake up the status quo
• Expect some things to seem
worse
• Propose new ideas
• Operate from strong beliefs
• Tolerate ambiguity and dissent
• Talk research and theory
• Create explicit goals for
change
• Define success in terms of
goals
Waters, Marzano & McNulty-2006
Clock Activity

• Identify the people on your staff for
whom this would be 1st and 2nd order.
• What leadership skills would you need
to support people through the change
process?

“Learner-Centered” Approach as
Opposed to “Teacher-Directed”
Approach to Leadership
TRIOS Protocol
1) Join two other people to form a group of three people:
Join with people who are not at your table
2) Each person speaks for one minute on the following topic:
What is the difference between a “learner-centered” vs. a
“teacher-directed” approach to leadership?
3) Others in the group listen without questioning or commenting.
Rotate until each person has had a chance to speak.
“Learner-Centered” Approach as
Opposed to “Teacher-Directed”
Approach to Leadership
4) Find two new partners
5) Each person discusses the following topic:
What does student leadership look like in a
learner-centered classroom?
Building leadership capacity in the
RISC Model?
Useful tools:
-Affinity Diagram
-Five Whys
-Flow Chart
-PDCA
-Rubrics
-Parking Lot
-Capacity Matrices
What does this look like for students?

What does continuous
improvement look like in the RISC
model?
• Nothing in a RISC system is stagnant.
Change and improvement are constants.
• A RISC system encourages both
introspection and innovation.
• RISC’s continuous improvement processvision, implement, study, act-can be used at
the individual and organizational levels.
– D50 uses the PDCA process: Plan, Do, Check,
and Adjust
What does Continuous
Improvement look like?
Student, Teacher, Principal and Superintendent
PDCA Process Tool
Purpose: To set goals, design the plan for goal
attainment and assess the success of the plan
PLAN What is the goal?
DO How do you implement it?
CHECK Was it a success?

deliverables, present with
book, reports…
Invite contacts to
Winter/Spring Symposia,
Meetings in lower 48,
Board Meetings.

Commit-o-gram
How committed are you to moving
forward?
•Commit-o-gram=A tool that provides a quick
assessment on how people feel about an issue
•Use dot with no names to be more authentic
•Determine what you want measured (How
committed are folks to moving forward with?)
•Discuss how this can guide future actions
(moral purpose, burning issues etc.)
Quadrant Commit-o-gram
• Ready to do it in my classroom, district,
state- Get out of my way!
• Ready to do it in my school.
• Ready to commit to more training.
• Even with more training, I’m not
committed to this change.
