Win-Win offers real-world strategies to education leaders of improvement, based on Edward Demings’ System of Profound Knowledge. A leader of improvement does not need to be expert in the four components of profound knowledge, but they do need to understand the basic theory, their interconnectedness, and why they are necessary for these efforts. Win-Win provides this basic understanding to improve the performance of schools systems, students, and teachers.
