Change Behavior

Creating change requires more than a growth mindset. There are vital behaviors that need to be put in place and reflected on often. Ideally, two or three behaviors are needed to have changed behavior. As explained in the Influencer, without specific vital behaviors success and change will not occur.

Once these vital behaviors are developed, sharing and implementing them with the proposed group is the next step. The six sources of influences are listed and described to use in cohesion with the vital behaviors. Using three different domains (personal, social, and structural), organizational change can occur through motivation and ability.

It is important to understand that in order to see success with these changes at least four of the six sources need to be implemented. Doing this will increase the success of the proposed changes by ten times. In the video, Joseph Grenny says the world changes if we change behavior. As an educator, he could experience this truth: the beginning of the school year is critical for setting goals, consequences, and expected behaviors. 

So yes! Changing behavior changes the world.
