2/9/2023 – Motivating others to change requires me to think about what motivates me to make changes.  It definitely would be to my heart, my beliefs and my values – not just my head, my thoughts, my experiences.  My heart and head work together to motivate me to change.  Thus, I need to use the same insight as I appeal for change with others especially in an environment that they control such as their classroom or their school, or going higher, their district.  Thus, a component to my Innovation Plan, can’t just be the data to enlist change because this focuses on the brain.  I have to think of how to reach the heart of my audience and what values and beliefs they hold that would create “buy-in” for my Innovation Proposal and ultimately my Innovation Plan.
