The Institutional Transformation Assessment is an online perception-gathering tool. The ITA supports two key activities:
Gathering input from leaders and practitioners
The ITA has 100+ indicators (questions) over 11 topics, spanning pathways, solutions, and operating capacities.
The ITA’s strength is in its breadth: it’s useful to ask how participants perceive areas of the institution that are outside of their day-to-day job.
Having a dynamic sense-making conversation
The aggregate (anonymized) responses to the ITA can spark an insightful discussion that digs deep and connects the dots between departments and efforts to reach new insights that can spur action.
The goal is to learn about each other’s perceptions and come to consensus on prioritized next steps.
