This document outlines research into organizations that perform beyond expectations across different sectors. It discusses nine factors (F1-F9) that contribute to extraordinary performance: having an improbable shared dream; confronting past failures; overcoming obstacles through determination; going against the mainstream; allowing creativity and flexibility; using fair performance tracking; pursuing sustainable growth; combining collaboration and competition; and blending different leadership styles. The research was conducted by Boston College and the University of London to understand success across education, business, and sport.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
2. Beyond Expectations Exploring organizations in education, business, and sport that perform beyond expectations (PBE) An international research project conducted jointly by Boston College & Institute of Education, University of London
3. We Have Met the Enemy and He Is PowerPoint A PowerPoint diagram meant to portray the complexity of American strategy in Afghanistan certainly succeeded in that aim. (New York Times, April 26, 2010)
10. Research Staff Co-directors: Andy Hargreaves, Boston College Alma Harris, London Institute of Education UK Team Alan Boyle Kathryn Ghent Janet Goodall US Team Alex Gurn Lori McEwen Michelle Reich Corrie Stone-Johnson
11. Research Questions What makes organizations of different types successful and sustainable, far beyond expectations? How does sustainability in leadership and change manifest itself in education, compared to other sectors? What are the implications for school leaders?
12. PBE Criteria Better than you did Better than your peers Better than you’d expect
15. F1: The Fantastic Dream Organizations that perform beyond expectations aspire to and articulate an improbable, collectively held fantasy or dream that is bolder and more challenging than a plan or even a vision. Martin Luther King had a dream, not a strategic plan - still less a set of key performance indicators.
16. F1: The Fantastic Dream The shared vision is about having ambition and nurturing the aspirations of our young people. Although the levels of deprivation might be high, that’s no excuse for low attainment Elected Member of Tower Hamlets Ernest Bader’s vision was that we shouldn’t be damaging the world. We should be adding value to the world in everything we do, the products we make, the money we make. So the Commonwealth is there to manage social development and charitable giving. Managing Director, Scott Bader Commonwealth
18. F2: The Fear The experience of success is often heightened by the emotional memory of a previous failure, or the fear of one that lays in wait. Organizations that perform above expectations often confront failure, humiliation, ridicule and even extinction in a way that galvanizes their commitment to change. An improbable dream begets an apparently impossible challenge.
19. F2: The Fear I, like many others, did not like the concept of buying footwear over the Internet, but the more I learned about it and felt I had an idea on how we could make it very scalable by creating this virtual model where we teamed up directly with the manufacturers, the more I liked it. Scott Savitz, CEO, Shoebuy.com
21. F3: The Fight The impossible dream and improbable challenge of surmounting failure or avoiding extinction produce a response of fight to overcome or avert obstacles, instead of flight to avoid them.
22. F3: The Fight There was almost a literal fight for the company. The stories about Green grabbing Rose hit the headlines. Some called it a fight. No blows were exchanged but it was a real fight; a battle of wills. Senior manager, Marks and Spencer He just advised me to get back in and sort it out, which I did! Graeme Hollinshead, former Head, Grange Secondary School
24. F4: CounterFlow PBE leaders of organizations that perform expectations are prepared to run against the mainstream, and to move ahead not by going with the flow but against or around it. These leaders are courageous, creative and counterintuitive.
25. F4: CounterFlow I liked to bowl uphill, into the wind Malcolm Speed, former CEO, Cricket Australia It’s still this fun, funky thing that people just gravitate to. People gravitate towards things that are different because there's intrinsic value in being different. Executive Leader, Dogfish Head Craft Breweries: We continue to work with the Year 7s in a competency-based approach rather than saying we’ll fit the Year 7 National Curriculum to these year 7s. Senior Leader, John Cabot Academy
27. F5: Flair, Flow & Flexibility It is not just teams and teamwork that keep these organizations aloft; it is the vibrant nature of the teamwork itself. Organizations that perform beyond expectations have cultures of creativity and risk-taking. They allow and encourage workers to have freedom and flexibility to innovate and play.
28. F5: Flair, flow and flexibility We try to be inclusive in the games that are being developed. And we get to form games at the club where everyone plays. There are no subs. Twelve lads play. That’s it. They’re not sitting on a bench on a freezing morning hoping they might get on. I think that’s been a great innovation by the GAA. They realise that children should play the game and enjoy playing the game because the memories you have when you’re that age will always stay with you. Brendan O’Sullivan, Minor Selector, Kilkenny Hurling If I can say anything it’s that in 14 years of business the thing I've done best, in terms of leadership, I've been able to find people who are really strong at the areas that I suck at so I can focus on the areas that I’m strong. Sam Cagalione, owner, Dogfish Head Craft Brewery
30. F6: Fast and fair tracking Organizations that perform above expectations mark, monitor and manage their progress towards success. They use indicators and targets of progress and performance that are personally meaningful, publicly shared and demonstrably fair measures of what leaders and followers are trying to achieve.
31. F6: Fast and fair tracking ‘We’ll take [the results of the inspection] and then the staff will say, “What are we going to all do to try to improve it? We’ve all got responsibility to complete that target in whichever way we can, whether it’s in your subject, whether it’s in your classroom or whichever way”. So everyone has got a part to play in this target. You feel you’ve actually made a difference because you were always involved in those targets so it works quite nicely to feel part of the school. Sally Stanton, Headteacher, Kanes Hill Primary School
33. F7: Feasible growth Beyond the swift actions necessary to counter any initial crisis, organizations that perform beyond expectations do not try to expand as quickly as possible and take off too fast. They are built on sustainable growth.
34. F7: Feasible Growth Every year the Board is just trying to win the league. It’s almost like the Lemming Race. You start off with a Lemming Race and as you get to the end of the season a big golden eagle picks up three of the lemmings and carries you off to paradise. A couple of them go over the cliff. They don’t get back. Leeds United went over the cliff a few years ago. Sheffield Wednesday went over. These were big clubs. Paul Fletcher, Chief Executive, Burnley Football Club It’s almost like brainwashing them into believing in themselves because it’s just constant, constant, constant. Deep down, they’re just being built up all the time. Assessment coordinator, Limeside Primary School
36. F8: Friendly rivalry Collaboration and competition are often seen as opposites. Leaders that perform beyond expectations go beyond these ideological oppositions and creatively combine collaboration with competition.
37. F8: Friendly rivalry There’s competition but there’s co-opetition. There’s cooperating with your competition to your benefit.
