  9. Introductions: Why are we here? Robert Pirsig writes about cultivating “the peace of mind which does not separate ones’ self from one’s surroundings… When that is done successfully, then everything else follows naturally.” “Peace of mind produces right values, right values produce right thoughts. Right thoughts produce right actions and right actions produce work which will be a material reflection for others to see of the serenity at the center of it all.”

  10. Our Context: Teacher Effectiveness AUSL turns chronically failing urban schools into models of excellence through a teacher-centric modelthat combines a clear and consistent framework for School Management with an integrated Teacher Development Processand robust Curricular Enhancements.

  24. Great Outcomes for Kids: Trapeze Artistry In search of the timid trapeze artist …. Good luck with that, there aren't any. If you hesitate when leaping from one rope to another, you're not going to last very long. And this is at the heart of what makes innovation work in organizations, why industries die, and how painful it is to try to maintain the status quo while also participating in a revolution. Gather up as much speed as you can, find a path and let go. You can't get to the next rope if you're still holding on to this one. www.sethgodin.com
