Action Planning Template Take 2!



I added two more parts to my action planning template after reading the chapter “sharing your work with others” in the book Leading with Passion and Knowledge and after posting my template in my blog and receiving feedback from others. The two I added are in bold, I needed to add some research in the beginning to find out what the school looked like a couple years ago and what programs were offered and the last part I added was how I was going to share my research with others after it was completed. I plan on putting together a power point presentation of all my data.

  1. Cool deal Kurt, I figured as a part of my presentation I would add a powerpoint as well. They seem to fit everything nicely together in one presentation.

  2. Good idea, Kurt. I assume the purpose of the project is to increase enrollment at your school? If that's correct, my suggestion would be to include a step outlining the action you will take to increase enrollment based on the information gained through your project. Good luck with your project!
