Transition

Transitioning is hard; it takes determination and expertise. If you need strategic guidance or interim support, we can help.

We are here to help you pivot.

The ideal is to transition gracefully from one leader to the next, with new hires on-boarding slowly and learning from more experienced mentors. The experts at Educational Technology Recruiting can deliver targeted training, mentorship and support that new hires need, covering topics from hiring and managing to budgeting and presenting.

The reality is that occasionally technology departments find themselves without a leader or director. Just as schools sometimes need an interim Head or CFO, there are periods when an interim CTO or Director of Technology needs to step in for a few weeks or months. Educational Technology Recruiting offers transitional leadership and management consulting during these times of change, whether planned or unplanned. In addition to rebuilding, reorganizing, or refocusing a department, we can also use this time to conduct a full assessment of your technology program, thereby helping you make an even better hire.

K-8 School

Case Study

K-8 School

The Challenge

A school with a history of early adoption of technology innovation found itself at a crossroads, with the departure of a long- tenured director that was announced late in the spring. Faculty shared disparate ideas for how to move forward.

The Pivot

Ed Tech Recruiting conducted an accelerated assessment to help senior leadership identify several internal staff members who could step up into interim director roles. This allowed the school to avoid making a shotgun hire of a new director at the tail end of the school year.

The Outcome

Ed Tech Recruiting refocused the school’s technology strategy and brought the faculty to a stronger consensus. Ed Tech Recruiting conducted trainings and workshops for the Board and senior administration, while offering coaching support for the interim technology leaders.

High School

Case Study

High School

The Challenge

A school had been struggling to launch its instructional technology program. Since its inception, the IT department has been managing technology curriculum and integration support. Teachers and administrators did not have a strategic technology partner to support curricular innovation.

The Pivot

Ed Tech Recruiting conducted a thorough assessment to help senior leadership imagine a new, standalone department parallel to IT. Administrators coalesce around a new vision for instructional technology.

The Outcome

Ed Tech Recruiting ran an international search for a visionary educational technology leader, who is now helping the school better connect the library, design technology, and IT services through a growing educational technology department.
