How motion leadership "moves" educators to action!

Do your school reform efforts frequently sputter or stall? In this indispensable sequel to the bestseller Motion Leadership, Michael Fullan shares the real-life strategies and results of educators who have used motion leadership to propel entire organizations and systems forward.

* Implementing a "ready-fire-aim" mindset

* Emphasizing the importance of collaboration

* Forging relationships while handling resistance

* Establishing your change stance in order to get better results
