Technology in Your Pocket to Build Community and Capture Everyday Interactions

The most powerful leadership tools aren’t complicated — they’re intentional. With iPhone or iPad, you can model clarity, reflection, and collaboration in small but meaningful ways:

🎙️ Think Out Loud

Use the Notes app to record voice reflections after school visits, community meetings, or board conversations. The built-in summary feature helps distill key themes and next steps—so insight doesn’t get lost in the pace of the day.

📸 Clean up a photo

Use Clean Up in Photos to remove distractions before sharing images from campus walkthroughs or events. A polished image keeps the focus where you want it —not what’s in the background.

📊 Put it to a vote

Use polls in Messages to quickly gather input from your cabinet or leadership team. It’s a simple way to model collaborative decision-making and surface perspectives before a meeting.
