Developing Effective Collaborations

Transformative change does not take place in isolation. Tackling the complex issues our communities face requires skillful collaboration. We see collaboration as a tool, a skill set and a philosophy. We are inherently collaborative in our approach to every project, inviting many voices into the conversations and processes we lead, and bringing deep knowledge of the best practices that support collaborative process.

​

Our team brings a unique evidence-based perspective grounded in the research shared in Collaboration: What Makes It Work which was co-authored by Courageous Change Collective Co-Founder, Kirsten Johnson.

​

We can help you build internal or community collaboratives that operate effectively and equitably.

​

  • Lay the groundwork and infrastructure for an effective coalition or collaboration
     

  • Support an ongoing or struggling collaboration to increase impact
     

  • Offer skill-building in collaborating across difference
     

  • Introduce and use the tools of Network Weaving

 

In addition to directly supporting collaboratives, we have developed a robust curriculum based on Collaboration: What Makes It Work and offer an annual skill building cohort for practitioners who are facilitating their own collaborative projects.​ Learn more about our 2026 Virtual Cohort here: Effective & Equitable Collaboration Cohort.
