Publisher's Synopsis
Quick Wins is a systematic approach grounded in organizational behavior science for achieving results and rapidly transforming schools.
Grounded in Organizational Behavior Management (OBM), or the science of human behavior for making a positive difference in any school or organization, the book's goal is to be a school leader's "grab and go" resource for building momentum for change.
