Morgan Goering, Ed.D. is an education systems leader and the founder and CEO of Making Champions of Change (MCC), which helps education leaders strengthen the human systems — relationships, leadership capacity, and organizational conditions — that sustain continuous improvement.
With more than a decade of experience spanning classroom teaching, school and district administration, and regional and statewide systems support, Morgan brings a comprehensive understanding of how organizational change is designed, implemented, and sustained.
Her work sits at the intersection of improvement science, change management, and adult learning. She has supported Minnesota districts in strengthening Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS), aligning improvement priorities, developing leadership capacity, and translating research into practical strategies. She is the developer of the Reflect. Connect. Grow. adult-learning framework and MCC’s Five Pillars of Lasting Change.
As a reDesignED Improvement Fellow, Morgan approaches change as both a human and organizational process. She emphasizes understanding the conditions surrounding a challenge, engaging those closest to the work, and connecting the appropriate expertise before selecting solutions.
At the heart of her work is a commitment to strengthening collective capacity, preserving institutional knowledge, and helping organizations move beyond isolated initiatives toward coherent, measurable, and sustainable improvement.
