“It’s Time for Systems Change”
“……..Systems changeSystems change is a complex and multi-faceted construct that may be approached in a variety of
fashions.
….EvolutionEvolution views the transformation of systems as a necessarily slow and ongoing process that requires
consensus among all levels of stakeholders about changes in attitude and behavior.
…..RevolutionRevolution reflects stakeholder impatience with slow change seeking to replace tortuous evolutions with more immediate and dramatic modifications in
status quo.” Patrick Corrigan, University of Chicago Center for Psychiatric
Rehabilitation
