Continuous improvement is a process,  a mindset, and a set of tools. It's organization-wide and specific to each individual. At its core are the people who do the work. Through sustained, system-wide improvement, teams can deeply understand and solve problems, while thriving through crises. Two experts in continuous improvement,  Dr. John Toussaint and Dr. Christina Dixon join us again to discuss the biggest obstacles to sustaining improved results over time, and how to prioritize improvement as the real work to be done.

This episode answers questions such as:

  • How are organizations using continuous improvement to eliminate gaps and disparities in student achievement?
  • Why is an improvement culture so beneficial during a crisis?
  • Should organizations start an improvement journey now?

To hear the first part of Janet's interview with John and Christina, listen to episode #142: The 5 Behavioral Traits for Sustaining Improvement.
