It might get said in passing, but not really modelled and lived by their teachers (ie at level 4 in our values framework www.idenk.co.uk\/values )<\/p>\n<p>3) Culture \u2013 I think awards ceremonies set the wrong example with none or few prizes for copying and applying; there is the \u2018tall poppy syndrome\u2019 (seen in its most extreme form re the treatment of whistle-blowers)\u2026even progressive journals and publishing can prize the new and novel a bit too much too.<\/p>\n<p>4) Incentives \u2013 real testing, experimentation and piloting is still not popular enough\u2026rapid implementation is the order of the day (often without the time for learning and synthesising \u2013 the transformative not syntactical learning Senge et al have talked of )<\/p>\n<p>So action is needed at the level of Structure, Process and Pattern to rectify this.<\/p>\n<p>Btw, sadly I still think many at top of orgs who call for spread (repeatedly) don\u2019t model 1) and do things against 2-4 on a daily basis\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was pleased to get this response to a piece I wrote: \u201cReally interesting what you&#8217;ve sent through, thanks for this &#8211; certainly agree and all chimes with my experience.
