Take leadership out of a digital transformation and you miss the
foundation on which everything else is built.
The traditional notion of leadership - people with titles - is no longer
valid. For digital transformations to be successful, leadership must be
developed and distributed at all levels of the system - district, school
board, building, teacher and student.
(key takeaways and questions)

lead it
• What role has leadership played in your digital transformation? 
• Which area is a strength? 
• Which area needs more development? 
• Are there areas of leadership you would add to this list?

Frequent opportunities for professional learning keep your digital transformation
goals at the forefront with everyone in the organization focused on
transformational learning, professionally and for our students.
While everyone needs a common language around technology and pedagogy,
effective supports meet teachers and leaders where they are and challenge them
to embrace a growth mindset for continuous improvement. Building and district
leaders must work collaboratively to ensure the individual and collective needs of
teachers and leaders are being met.

• In what ways have supports been critical in your school’s
digital transformation? 
• How have you approached supporting your teachers and
leaders in innovative ways? 
• What additional components of support would you add
to this list, such as instructional or technology coaches?

Every digital transformation should have clearly deﬁned goals and a plan to
document progress toward those goals. Taken together, clear goals and a plan for
evaluation are the rudder of an effective digital transformation.
Evaluation and assessment require a signiﬁcant investment of human resources,
particularly in the area of time. However, the data collected and results shared will
be invaluable in informing the short-term and long-term vision of the initiative.

evaluate it
• How has the evaluation/assessment process informed your school/district
digital transformation - long-term and short- term? 
• What process have you followed? 
• What have you learned from evaluating your initiative? 
• What are your next steps?

call to action
“If you can see your path laid out in
front of you step by step, you know
it’s not your path. Your own path you
make with every step you take. That’s
why it’s your path.”
– Joseph Campbell
