[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FCPS has many great schools but not many great HQ leaders, to say the least. Luftglass stuck with BB (a local firm) for well over a decade. Not only was she not proactive in adopting new approaches, she also wasn't proactive in keeping BB up to date (nor even reactive). Then COVID comes along, and she's seemingly inundated with a whole bunch of new or sped-up requirements. Not a great way to run a massive educational operation. Certainly not fair to her. That said, had she and team been doing their job of digital transformation over the years, would have been doable. In other words, if you are going to be CIO of anything for two decades, you better know how to keep evolving. No matter how dysfunctional or static your org, eventually you will get bit in the ass if you don't. [/quote] Hopefully we'll look back on this as a turning point, a new tech team that pursues real digital transformaition - people, process, technology - to make FCPS where it should be. Ironic, given DC's high-tech and government chops, how many parents (and teachers, and some kids too!) are more than qualified to help make this happen. [/quote] There are a lot of us on the consulting side of the industry who are watching closely. This is going to be a MAJOR Ed tech case study and it’s a huge consulting opportunity for the right company that understands k12 ed tech.[/quote]
