Lindamood-Bell Learning Processes reviews

-Incredible mismanagement by corporate. Awful communication and tons of online meetings that are just vapid cheerleading. -Putting people who are not ready at all in higher positions, which just sets them up for failure. -Complete disconnect to how centers function day to day, which lead to decisions that make running a center more difficult. -A pay cut when everyone in the centers are already underpaid. This was never once addressed by the CEO or anyone in upper management, just communicated through an email. Then multiple additional responsibilities were ADDED to each role, so now employees are expected to work twice as hard for less money. -Incompetent people in corporate who probably got the job though friends (a lot of nepotism and favoritism in the upper echelons of the company) making costly errors and wasting money, which is the real cause of their poor financial year

Weak senior management. They definitely struggle to balance their desire for integrity and improving student outcomes with business. The largest downside I saw was a lack of respect for teachers and school culture. I think it wrecked relationships over and over, with very little realism from the company and honest reflection about why and how that happened. While I laud their ability to use their data to improve their programs, I think that the same rule should be applied to improving their customer outreach and relationships.
