To further\u00a0reflect and evaluate on my perspective changes in this course, here are my overall \u2018lesson learned\u2019 by unit:<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Unit 2: Leading Change – Change Managemen<\/b>t<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Unit 3:\u00a0<\/b>DLEs Implementation and Planning – Project Management\u00a0\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Unit 4: Incorporating data in decision making \u2013 Learner Access to Data<\/b><\/p>\n For this unit, I learned most through reading and responding to peers\u2019 comments in\u00a0<\/i>Unit 4 Activity 2.<\/i>\u00a0This activity involved a\u00a0<\/i>Google Doc where we shared questions about our data at Royal Roads as graduate students.\u00a0<\/i>Since I design learning for adult learners, this was useful for me to understand the mindset of multiple adult learner perspectives.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n <\/p>\n When I add these summarized learnings to my beginning perspective prior to these course units, I now can see that my perspective has altered. I now see the importance of building in a\u00a0systems\u00a0thinking mindset to work with a reflective leadership approach to enable sustainable change for learners. Systems theory implies that an organization is a complex system and that your leadership approach should always consider the multiple moving parts of an organization (Biech, 2007). This\u00a0requires you to incorporate a ‘think like a system’\u00a0 mindset to identify potential barriers to change during the diffusion of the change in your organization (Conway, Masters and Thorold, 2017).<\/p>\n 2<\/b>)\u00a0<\/b>In your current role, how can you help lead a change within your organization?<\/b><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Taken from my above Unit 2 \u2018lesson learned\u2019, I can help lead a DLE change by:<\/i>\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Resources:\u00a0<\/em>For\u00a0questions, I can\u00a0use\u00a0the\u00a05 Why method from our SystemsLens<\/em> tool<\/a>\u00a0built by\u00a0our team (Alastair, Chad, Theresa and I) for Assignment 3.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n From my above Unit 3 \u2018lesson learned\u2019<\/i>\u00a0, I can help lead a DLE change by:<\/i>\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Resources:\u00a0<\/em>I can use resource management techniques, such as the ones defined in the third element of our team’s\u00a0SystemsLens<\/em> tool<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n From my above Unit\u00a0<\/i>4<\/i>\u00a0\u2018lesson learned\u2019, I<\/i>\u00a0can help lead a DLE change by:<\/i>\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0Resources:\u00a0 I can consider using language from the Open University’s learning data ethical policies and FAQ documents that were part of Unit 4 readings.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 3) What can you envision doing in the future?<\/b><\/p>\n <\/p>\n I envision multiple future DLE changes where I can incorporate the above ways that I can help lead change as well as the course unit lessons I\u2019ve summarized.
