Educators often hear, “Improvement can’t be done in isolation” but what does it truly take to shift from individual improvement efforts to sustainable, collective, and equitable improvement cultures? How do leaders create conditions for improvement to thrive in everyday collaboration? In this workshop, participants will explore innovative strategies for fostering a culture of continuous improvement that extends beyond individual team leads to impact entire educational organizations. Drawing from the impactful Freshman Success Improvement Community (FSIC) model developed by the University of Chicago’s Network for College Success, participants will engage in experiential learning and discussions that demonstrate how to build the necessary conditions, dispositions, and cultures for improvement work to thrive beyond an individual improver.
