What are the problems/difficulties/drawbacks/systemic racism/historical issues/critiques of/in your future profession that you can see from the outside? How do you know? What research or experiences have you or others you know had to prove these assumptions?
What beliefs/values/ethics/personal experiences do you have that prepare you to make changes in your profession?
What changes would you like to make? Do you see systems of support already in place for change-making? If so, what are they? If not, who are your allies?
What are the steps (small to large) that you would need to make?
How do you get started?
Need to have the text from the readings just parts and source it
A. Required reading:
An EXCERPT OF YOUR CHOOSING from Leading Change, John Kotter.
There are several ways to access this book:
Buy it. There are MANY used copies available online.
YouTube excerpt videos.
Many good articles reference this book. (Including “How to Create Change in the Workplace” in The Washington Post.)
The attached Ppt. gives a brief summary.
The more of 1-4 you can do before your final project, the better. The advice from this book should be incorporated into your final project in subtle ways.
B. The list of potential readings is below that. I’d like to you choose two excerpts (on your own–things of interest to you) from the books listed. Again, these are mostly available as audio file excerpts or very inexpensive used copies.
Social Chemistry, Marissa King
Make Change, Shaun King
Upstream, Dan Heath
Think Again, Adam Grant
The Sum of Us, Heather McGee
Diffusion of Innovation, Everett Rogers
Your final journal entry will be a reflection on these readings.
