Drawing on complexity theory, the book posits that these systems can only be guided, not managed, and explores new possibilities for enhancing learning outcomes for all students through large-scale, sustainable reform. Fullan investigates necessary policy adjustments, the crucial role of contemporary leadership, and the significance of fostering conditions that support continuous reform efforts. The text also analyzes case studies of educational reform in various contexts, including England and California, to illustrate the challenges and potential pathways toward systemic improvement at school, district, and state levels. Ultimately, the work emphasizes the need for moral purpose, collaborative relationships, quality knowledge, and a shift towards distributed leadership to achieve lasting educational transformation.
