Shared Vision is driven by our collective values and beliefs. It’s a powerful way to begin any change process; to ensure everyone has a voice and we agree where we are heading. It needs to be easy to understand and measurable. It is also re-evaluated on a regular timeline to do a ‘check and adjust’ on how well we are able to follow what we said we were going to do. A Shared Vision is key for any classroom or even large organization. When the crowd is moving together in the same direction, anything is possible!
