130. The Clarity Cycle Meets the System of Profound Knowledge with Dr. Doug Stilwell
Schools don’t fail because people don’t care—they struggle because the system isn’t clear. In this episode, I’ll talk with Doug Stilwell about how the System of Profound Knowledge connects with the Clarity Cycle to help leaders move from compliance-driven change to true continuous improvement.
Doug Stilwell is a retired superintendent, university professor, and longtime advocate for continuous improvement in education. With over four decades of experience in teaching and leadership, he brings a systems-thinking lens to school transformation. Doug now focuses on coaching leaders, writing, and sharing insights from Deming, Baldrige, and beyond.
