About Us
Our Mission
InnovateK12 is dedicated to empowering organizations through crowd-based innovation.
We leverage powerful social and analytical tools, along with research-based best practices, to optimize engagement and collaboration with stakeholders in critical areas such as workforce development, staff collaboration, family and community engagement, strategic planning, continuous improvement, and student-directed learning.
How We Help
We help you harness the collective intelligence of your stakeholders, fostering creativity and trust within their organizations.
Through crowd-sourcing initiatives focused on co-creation and co-construction, you receive data analytics that delivers key insights, correlations, and findings.
This enables you to invite stakeholder groups to engage, participate, and collaborate, leading to an aligned leadership model and practice.

Our Differentiated Value
Community-wide Co-Design:
We offer safe, constructive ways to engage stakeholders, leading to operational success.
AI-Driven Data Analysis:
Analyzing districts’ qualitative data 100X faster and with deeper insight.
Sentiment Analytics AKA “The Why”:
Sense-making; not just what stakeholders are saying, but why, via Sentiment Analytics.
Our Approach
Our peer-reviewed research demonstrates that when stakeholders can contribute their voices to something larger than themselves, they become more hopeful and optimistic about their community and its future.
InnovateK12's Three-Dimensional Service Model
Phase 1
Engagement Sequencing
We collaborate with district leaders to plan their engagement strategy and events, culminating in an Annual Engagement Plan.
Phase 2
Engagement Platform/Survey Tools
Stakeholders are invited, inspired, and motivated to engage, ideate, iterate, and collaborate by sharing knowledge and ideas.
Phase 3
Data Reporting
Using a blend of AI and human intelligence, we distill the data into Sentiment Analytics, providing deep insights with actionable next steps, which then inform Phase 1.
