THE READINESS GAP: What School and District Leaders Must Know Before Launching MTSS

Why do so many well-intended initiatives like MTSS fail to deliver results?The problem isn't the work.It's what happens - or doesn't happen - before the work begins.Leaders are expected to move quickly, launching initiatives before the system is truly prepared to carry them. Yet, when outcomes fall short, the initiative is often blamed, while the real culprit escapes accountability entirely.Dr. Carpia Naylor names what the field keeps missing.In The Readiness Gap, she exposes a pattern hiding in plain sight: Systems repeatedly launch initiatives before building the conditions necessary to sustain them.Because sustainable impact is not possible in systems that are unprepared.Drawing on decades of systems leadership, she shows what launching without readiness actually costs: fragmented implementation, misaligned decisions, and the time, resources, and momentum that districts cannot afford to lose twice.This book gives leaders the clarity and tools to close the gap before it closes in on them.Before the next rollout. Before the next training. Before the next launch attempt, ask the question most systems never stop to answer: Are we truly ready?
