Alief leaders creating a culture of growth at our Leadership Cohort at Rice University. @Leaderpartners @AliefISD

Change is the gateway to improvement. There are two types of change, technical and cultural. A school with a healthy culture is prime for innovation. Learning about how to change culture to get the results we want from Dr. Muhammad and @Leaderpartners.

It's time for schools to move from the industrial model from when they were created to a model that allows them to focus on being a learning organization (DuFour & Eaker). Great conversations with Dr. Anthony Muhammad during our Executive Leadership Cohort @Leaderpartners
