Four Quadrant Diagram

The Four Quadrant Diagram may be used with small groups to determine individual or group perception. Once areas have been identified, other tools such as the Force Field Analysis, PDSA, and/or Action Plan may be used to address high resistance/high impact areas. (Please note that other quadrant descriptors can be used, such as high/low expectations, high/low support, high/low achievement, etc.)

Goal: To implement Baldrige-based Classroom Learning Systems throughout our school. Where would you place the following?  Setting classroom Ground  Using Rules the PDSA  Setting individual goals  Defining “My Job, Your Job, process  Using student data Parents’ Job, Our Job”?  Using a Force Field noteboo  Using Affinity Diagrams Analysis ks  Using Consensograms  Setting class goals  Sharing “Quality Tools I’ve  Using Plus/Deltas  Creating class action plans Used” at staff meetings  Writing a class mission  Keeping class data  Holding Baldrige training statement  Posting class data (no sessions during staff  Defining Core Values personal identification) meetings High Impact  Holding class meetings  Attending a Baldrige  Taking Surveys quality academy   + Continuously referring to 3 classroom ground rules, jobs, mission statement
