The Core Of Change Is Learning

Founder And Executive Director Of The Institute For The Future Of Learning, Author And Speaker

Healing Conversation #404

— “The Core of change is learning. Which is ironic. Our institutions of learning are slow, some might even say immune, to change.”

Valeria Teles interviews Julie M. Wilson — the author of “The Human Side of Changing Education: How to Lead Change with Clarity, Conviction, and Courage.”

When we ask schools to change, we are asking human beings to change, and this requires special tools and a human-centered approach. Change the heart of the system by enabling the hearts and minds of those who make schools work. Learn to make sense of challenging change journeys and accelerate implementation with this practical framework that includes human-centered tools, resources, and mini case studies: Understand why resistance is to be expected and how to get through it; Discover three different kinds of change strategies and when to use which one; Learn how to use the "messy middle" of change, where real transformation happens.

Julie M. Wilson is the founder and executive director of the Institute for the Future of Learning, a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping transform the 'one size does not fit all' model of education. She has over fifteen years' experience building effective learning environments that unlock human potential and enable organizational culture to adapt and grow during times of change. Julie graduated from Harvard's Graduate School of Education with a master's degree in technology, innovation, and education.
Her book, 'The Human Side of Changing Education' was published by Corwin Press.
