What is bringing Disruption to School Psychology?
$ MONEY
$ University$ Funding challenges (state budgets,
endowments, tuition)$ Solutions Offered = do more with less
$ increase daily business (teaching, research service, accreditation)
$ increase enrollments (e.g., on-line courses, new program offerings)
$ minimize costs (e.g., travel funds, office supplies)$ stagnate wages / raises
What is bringing Disruption to School Psychology?
$ MONEY
$ Field $ Legislative challenge = Affordable Care Act (ACA) $ Solutions Offered = Opportunity
$ Health and mental health needs of children are yet unmet in the previous system
$ School Psychology has a seat at the Health Service Provider table
$ Question is … how best to capitalize on new opportunities while keeping true to established roles?
What stops people from pro-actively responding to
disruptive change?1. Deny the disruption and remain blind to it.
2. Minimize the disruption
3. Recognize the disruption but not realize the magnitude of consequences,
Disruption causes a flood of negative feelings.
Causes us to pause, given the uncertainties, we consider what to do next…
