An African American woman brainstorms plans by writing with a dry-erase marker on a glass wall that also includes sticky notes.

Set long-term and mini goals for yourself. Don’t get overwhelmed: It won’t happen overnight. Always have a plan and re-evaluate it regularly. If a door closes, find a window. Don’t take no for an answer — there is always another option.

– Bobbi Brown

Enticing Into Confusion

No matter our instructional, distributed, or transformational leadership strengths their value does not address the change agent’s mortal enemy, the status quo. Foot soldiers in the status quo army are the purveyors of “No!” No matter how promising an idea, the answer is always the same—no.

Facilitating Student Exploration of the Four Keys to College and Career Readiness

If the Center for Disease Control can facetiously use a hypothetical zombie apocalypse to emphasize the importance of emergency preparedness, why not use the same scenario to engage students in conversation around the skills they need for life readiness? The first protocol in this resource introduces the Four Keys to students and can be used to facilitate a general conversation about all of the Keys. The subsequent protocols give students the opportunity to spend more time thinking about the specific skills and learning techniques identified in each Key (THINK, KNOW, ACT, GO).
