The purpose of this study is to analyze the causes and patterns of innovation resistance, the strategy of teachers resisting, and the strategy of overcoming resistance to innovative leaders. To this end, in-depth interviews were conducted with 15 innovative leaders. The causes of innovation resistance were found to be ① conflict of philosophy and values ② maintenance of security in life ③ loss of initiative ④ maximization of self-interest. Resistance strategies can be divided into passive resistance and active resistance. Passive resistance strategies were shown to be: ① packaging complaints as justification ② double practice ③ neglect ④ not to try. Active resistance strategies were: ① negative rumor ② subtraction ③ finding victim ④ rejecting ⑤ innovation reaction. Innovation leaders practiced different strategies to overcome the varied forms of resistance. The top strategies were the mind-getting, power building, culture and system building, and fruiting. The methods of the mind-getting strategy include: approaching the opposition humanely, laying down vested interests, and taking on difficult tasks. The methods of the power formation strategy were to form a consensus, persuade, and establish both a stronghold and a subject. Methods of the culture and system building strategies were judged to be student-centered, handed over, taken away, and systemized. The method of the fruiting strategy was starting from what you can do and branding the curriculum from there. As a result of the interaction between the two groups, four types of schools formed by the size of the force were presented.
