1. What is Strategic Performance Management (SPM)?
SPM weds strategic planning with performance management in a living system that provides direction for people’s work while allowing for innovation and course adjustment to produce better results more efficiently.
Redding & Layland (2015)

2. If SPM is a solution for an SEA or LEA, what are the problems it solves?

3. Strategic Performance Management

4. What is a Strategic Performance Network?
System SPM for a multi-organization system. A state system of support is such a system.
Focus Sharpens each organization’s unique direction, enhancing that organization’s productivity in pursuing its own goals.
Support Interlaced data create rapid circuits of information that activate responsive supports.

5. Facets of Strategic Performance Network

6. Casting a Strategic Performance Net
Common Elements – but unique to each organization
Goals (and goal performance measures)
Strategies (and strategy performance measures)
Milestones (implementation measures)
Actions (implementation measures)
Coded Elements –but unique for each organization
Strategies based on practices within 4 Domains
Strategies and related milestones and actions are coded based on 4 Domains

7. Category Coding (CST’s 4 Domains)
Turnaround Leadership
Instructional Transformation
Prioritize improvement and communicate urgency
Diagnose and respond to student needs
Monitor short-and long-term goals
Provide rigorous, evidence-based instruction
Customize and target supports to meet needs
Remove barriers and provide opportunities
Talent Development
Culture Shift
Recruit, develop, retain, & sustain talent
Build a strong school community focused on learning
Target professional learning opportunities
Solicit and act upon stakeholder input
Set clear performance expectations
Engage students and families in pursuing education goals

8. How would common elements and coded categories provide “interlaced data” and facilitate responsive supports?

9. To put it simply . . .
Each organization (SEA, LEA, school) develops the common elements with its own content.
SEA, LEA and schools form a System of Support with interlaced data and technical assistance.
Technical assistance is responsive to each organization’s needs based on data.

10. Telling the System Story
Goal Performance Measures
Strategy Performance Measures
Milestones
(Implementation Measures)
Actions and Output
Telling the System Story
Data at multiple levels forms a throughline or theme to tell the system’s as well as each organization’s performance story. Reported routinely in performance and innovation cycles.

11. Sense-making
How would you connect the dots in a Strategic Performance Network?
4 Domains – Common Elements – Coded Categories
Tomorrow's session will focus on applying the process through example and exploration.
