Today’s Learning Objectives
As a result of today’s presentation, school leaders will:
- Understand NAIS's Jobs-to-be-Done (JTBD) parent research and strategically discuss their
school's specific parent population and market reality;
- Use a systems thinking framework to analyze forces inside and outside their school's
control, and brainstorm creative inputs that can lead to new and innovative outputs; and,
- Synthesize their insights on whom they serve, what they offer, and how that fits into their
school's dynamic environment to build alignment and buy-in among key stakeholders.

What is a JTBD?
8
The JTBD methodology is based on the core belief that consumers (typically parents and guardians) do not buy products and brands, but rather consumers fire & hire candidates (typically schools) to perform a “job” for them. The JTBD methodology consists of a series of interviews with consumers who have recently hired & fired a particular product or its competition. The results of these interviews are coded and analyzed using cluster analysis in order to find common patterns of firing & hiring behavior that are observable, not aspirational. Since interviews are based on actual behavior, the true hiring & firing criteria, and are inclusive of the trade-offs consumers made, the JTBD methodology is better able to identify what is truly important to consumers and how they behave versus how they “say” they will behave.

Struggling Moment
JTBD: Context is Key
11
Functional: What the product does Emotional: How it makes them feel Social: How others perceive them
A JTBD is the progress that a person is trying to make in a particular circumstance. It includes an understanding of the functional, emotional, & social characteristics of the desired
- utcome the person is trying to achieve.

Activity
Take 5 minutes to read through the JTBD profiles on pages 3-6 in your toolkit individually. Once your table is finished, discuss the following questions (found on page 8) for 20 minutes: Which JTBD does your school serve well? Which JTBD does your school struggle to serve?

Demand-Side Innovations
24 Infuse JTBD language into everything from marketing for the event to the Q&A used during the event to increase awareness in the community and ultimately improve yield. Reimagine the Open House Experience Strategically narrow which JTBD to serve to promote
- perational
efficiencies and create a stronger brand to increase enrollment pipelines. Strategic Planning with JTBD When grading policies change from lower to middle or middle to upper school, use a JTBD lens to align the supply and demand-side and combat a high attrition rate in these grades. Redesign Grading Policies Aligning Hiring Practices When hiring teachers, look for alignment between their values and the JTBD you serve to facilitate a stronger culture of demand-side innovation and build a collective sense of empathy for the parents.
