“We used ThoughtExchange for our district’s upcoming $152M bond election. Not only could participants ask questions and have the answers displayed in real-time on our website—but they could share thoughts and opinions. By addressing concerns head-on, the outcome of our bond vote was overwhelmingly positive, at 79% approval.”
“Our district adopted a new strategic plan to guide the work of the district over the next five years, and we obtained unanimous approval from our board of directors for that strategic plan, in large part because we used ThoughtExchange to make sure that we had listened to the community and we invited them into the process.”
“ThoughtExchange is a powerful platform that enables diverse perspectives to be shared and considered, leading to increased understanding among participants, more informed decision-making, and a positive environment for effective change. Our district has utilized it successfully in many ways, including for task force topics and staff satisfaction feedback.”
“We gained valuable perspectives that didn’t get overshadowed by the over-represented responses, and in doing so changed our strategy with very little pushback from the community. I believe this is because they experience the feelings themselves by being in the Exchange. There just isn’t another platform that enables everyone to read and engage in other people’s thinking.”
“Surveys in ThoughtExchange have been a game-changer. With the Survey piece, we don’t have to tie in another system like a Google form or SurveyMonkey in addition to our Exchanges. People are less willing to do two different surveys, so getting them engaged through one platform has been great.”
“As a new leader, I had to gain the community's trust. ThoughtExchange is a powerful tool that helped me get a lot of information from across the school district very quickly and bring that information back to my board so we could build training and develop our directional documents. We now have a strategic blueprint that will take us forward into the next three years.”
