Creating Organizational Transparency with Google Apps for Education
Let's Talk Change
Click Here to make a copy of the Change Matrix Worksheet
To create change, leaders must clearly communicate all the components of change over an extended period of time. Change will not take place because of a single staff meeting, a one-and-done staff development, nor the launch of a single initiative: Change is a process.
Creating an Eco-System for Managing Change:
1. Create the Space for: Celebrations, Communications and Resources.
2. Drive traffic to this site weekly.
3. Organize all admin working resources onto one platform and manage the change.
Resources & Assets for the Sample Site
Step 1 - Creating the Space
The landing page can show the school calendar or have quick resources. The sidebar is the key to organize staff communications and transparency.
Create a weekly news letter that is on the site. This allows for updates and error correction even once it is published! The Weekly becomes the reason to come to the site, and while staff are there, they may check out other resources as well.

Create a collaboration page and link all collaboration team notes and folders in one place. This makes it easy to keep track of what everyone is working on.

Place Professional Development Archives, Staff Meeting Running Agendas, Leadership Team Notes, all on one sidebar. This creates transparency in an organization where nobody can say they didn't know something was happening.

Step 2: Drive Traffic to the Site Weekly
Be intentional about branding communication:
Once branded as valuable, all other resources become relevant and accessible. A brand is Unique, Consistent and Reliable.
Step 3: Collect all Admin Resources onto one Page
Create an admin page with all of the most important resources for running an efficient admin team meeting:
- Planning Calendar
- Admin Agenda
- Weekly Staff Communication Template
- Weekly Parent Communication Template
