Getting to the heart of complex problems can be tricky. How does one untangle the many threads that can be involved? How do you uncover what the real pain points are so that you can address them?
In this discussion, we explore the approach of human-centered design and how it can be used to both discover and uplift perspectives to help find community-focused solutions.
To learn more about human-centered design, we talk with Michelle Carrillo and Leslie Tergas of ThinkPlace West. The discussion explores their work using the “four voices of design” approach, and uplifts examples of how to use this approach within collective work. We also discuss how tools like “empathy interviews” can help draw out community voices so that one can get a deeper understanding of community members’ experiences, including what’s working and what’s not.

Defending and Advancing Democracy and Equity in Collective Impact Work 1:22:15

Collaboratives based in the U.S. that are working to solve for and reduce disparities in their communities are facing compounding challenges with the current chaotic sociopolitical climate, including sudden funding cuts, mass job losses, mis- and disinformation campaigns, demoralizing messaging from national leaders and those they have deputized, and vigorous attacks on both equity and democracy. When everything seems to be coming down at once—overwhelming by intention, it feels like a tsunami of Executive Orders, department directives, and social media missives that range the spectrum from unprofessional to potentially illegal (or “extralegal”). The current context feels confounding. What do we do? What can we do? In a candid and grounded podcast conversation that is both sobering and hopeful, Collective Impact Forum senior advisor Junious Williams talks with Erika Bernabei and Theo Miller ( Equity & Results ) about this current chaotic time for U.S. collective impact initiatives. Together, they discuss: What it means to assess and mitigate risks right now—individually and organizationally; How organizations with more power or flexibility can provide cover and protect others, and how important it is to not “obey in advance.” The need for honest conversations amongst partners, including if you have a shared understanding around organization ethics and mission; The critical importance of storytelling to counter misinformation and support vulnerable communities; How to analyze the current context amidst overwhelming noise; How to identify both defensive and offensive strategies to protect and advance equity within the work.

Why Community Listening is Critical to Achieve Effective Philanthropy 40:46

۶ weeks پیش40:46

Listening to community members and tapping into community expertise are key factors when trying to understand why social issues are happening, and what potential solutions may be best to address these challenges. This is especially true for philanthropy, a sector committed to traditionally funding social change through more “top down” strategies, rather than seeking and empowering community-driven solutions from the beginning. Over the last 10 years, the funder collaborative Fund for Shared Insight has been working to support philanthropy to better engage and uplift community voice by promoting resources and building capacity around community listening, centering community voice and expertise, and learning how to shift from “power over” to “power with” their community members and partnering organizations. In this new podcast discussion, we talk with Melinda Tuan , Shared Insight's managing director. Melinda shares key takeaways from the last decade, including what it takes to support and encourage change in how foundations work with communities. From participatory practices to community advisory boards, we explore strategies that have helped foundations better connect to their constituents and reach their funding goals.

In this new podcast discussion, we talk with Paul Schmitz and Dominique Samari , authors of the recent report, “Backbone Leadership Is Different.” We explore how backbone leadership is unique and why It differs from traditional, more hierarchical leadership styles. In the discussion, we dive into: The specific mindset shifts required in backbone leadership; The skill sets that are crucial for effective backbone leadership; The importance of building relationships as a vital aspect of backbone leadership(and why it’s necessary that relationship-building be specified as part of the backbone’s work, and not considered an add-on or “on the side”.)

Companies can be a critical partner in collective impact work. However, working with companies can pose unique challenges, from understanding how to initiate these partnerships to understanding how to best partner to sustain these relationships over time. To learn more about how collaboratives can engage and partner with the private sector to advance social change work, we talk with Nikhil Bumb , Managing Director at the social change consulting firm FSG . In this conversation, we discuss the multiple ways that nonprofits and companies can collaborate, from reaching out through corporate philanthropy to building deep, cross-sector partnerships. We also explore some of the unique advantages and challenges associated with partnering with companies, including the importance of: Challenging preconceived notions about what it means to work in the nonprofit or private sector; Understanding each partner’s strengths, resources, and limitations; Strengthening relationships by fostering a culture of mutual understanding, shared learning, and transparency; Moving beyond transactional relationships to establish a shared mission and values alignment.

How to Foster Effective Partnerships with Government 46:05

Achieving long-term change requires having government—whether local, state, or federal—at the collaborative table as a key partner. However, many collaboratives share that building these partnerships can be challenging, intimidating, or confusing. To better understand how to build and sustain effective relationships with public sector partners, we talk with Caroline Whistler , CEO and co-founder of Third Sector , a nonprofit technical assistance provider that advises U.S. government agencies on effective ways to reshape policies, systems, and services toward better outcomes for all people no matter their race, background, and circumstances. This discussion explores the opportunities and challenges collaboratives may face when partnering with government agencies. The conversation highlights: Shifting mindsets from a compliance-driven approach to an outcomes-focused approach, where government agencies work alongside their collaborative partners to define and measure progress towards shared goals. Why relationship and trust-building are necessary when collaborating with government partners. Why sustaining partnerships with government can help collectives reach better outcomes for everyone, but also needs to be recognized as an “ongoing process,” requiring commitment, patience, continuous learning, and a willingness to adapt.

Connecting Advocacy and Data to Advance Collective Goals 59:07

25 weeks پیش59:07

59:07

Last year, Independent Sector published research on how advocacy by the nonprofit sector has evolved over the last 25 years, and specifically, how it has severely declined, with only 31% of nonprofits reporting advocacy activities over the last 5 years. Compare that to the year 2000, where more than double that—74% of the nonprofit sector--was participating in advocacy activities. That dip in advocacy has multiple rationales, including increased confusion about what counts as advocacy and experiencing “advocacy fatigue” from how long advocating can take to create long-term policy and systems change. To better understand how collaboratives CAN participate in advocacy to support policy change and their collective goals, we talk with Arts for LA , an arts advocacy organization that supports creative arts and jobs in Los Angeles County, California. We learn about the Creative Jobs Collective Impact Initiative (CJCII) , and how they have used data to strengthen their collaborative and advocacy efforts. To learn more about how collectives can get involved in advocacy (and how to avoid or mitigate advocacy fatigue), we hear from Ricky Abilez and Gabriel Gutierrez from Arts for LA, and Adam Fowler from CVL Economics. They share what has worked, what has been challenging, and how partners with different motivations and backgrounds can still work together to achieve advocacy wins.

Designing to Inspire Community Joy and Connection 53:21

How can inclusive design spur community connections and build stronger partnerships in the process? During the COVID pandemic, the Van Alen Institute and the Urban Design Forum collaborated to launch Neighborhoods Now , a program shepherding resources, both funding and people, toward pandemic recovery and strengthening community partnerships across four boroughs in New York City. One notable community partnership was with Think!Chinatown , an intergenerational non-profit based in Manhattan’s Chinatown that fosters community through neighborhood engagement, storytelling and the arts. Manhattan’s Chinatown was severely impacted by the pandemic, not only due to the health crisis but also a rise in anti-Asian hate. Through partnering with Neighborhoods Now, Think!Chinatown sought to unite the community, spark joy and connection amongst community members, and create a warm, welcoming space where residents could once again feel safe. From this partnership, the Chinatown Night Market was born. Launched the following summer, the Night Markets not only created a welcoming, safe, and joyful space for community members, but they also brought partners from across the City together to rebuild trust and re-focus on community needs through the implementation of inclusive design. In this new podcast, we learn how this partnership grew, how trust was rebuilt, and how this project kept Manhattan’s Chinatown community at its core. We talk with Andrew Brown (Van Alen Institute) and Yin Kong (Think!Chinatown), as they share the key elements that made this community partnership successful, and discuss how programs like Neighborhoods Now can create lasting positive change for communities.

How Practicing Futurism Can Strengthen Your Collaborative Strategy 57:53

When building a collaborative strategy or working through your implementation plans, it might feel like what you need most is a crystal ball (or a mystically accurate Magic 8 ball) to reveal which activities will work, which won’t, and where you can pivot so you and your partners can keep making progress. Moving ahead while surfing through ambiguity and questions like, “what will happen if…” can make the process of working together even more uncertain and stressful. The practice of futurism can be helpful when working through questions about where your collaborative work can go, and how your work may be affected by shifts in , political, financial, environmental, and other conditions. In this new podcast episode, we explore how futurism can be used by collaboratives. We talk with Trista Harris , President of FutureGood , an organization that supports funders and nonprofits by tapping into future thinking. We discuss how these practices can support scenario-planning, risk mitigation, and imaging what an “ideal future” might be. In the discussion, we also explore the future trends that collectives may need to consider, including the impact of artificial intelligence (AI), disaster planning, and imagining a bright future when facing daunting challenges.

Without proactively removing the structures and systems that have contributed to inequity, place-based collaboratives can not make a meaningful impact on the lives of those most excluded and underestimated in communities. However, given the increasing anti-DEI political and cultural headwinds unfolding in the US and several other countries, communities are facing increased challenges pursuing their equity work. To explore this topic, we share an audio recording from the Day 3 opening panel discussion at the 2024 Collective Impact Action Summit. The panel discusses the challenges collaboratives are facing in their work to advance equity and how collaboratives can navigate through this adversity to continue making progress towards their collective goals.

The Necessary Skills to Navigate Change 47:02

Navigating and managing change is key to a collaborative’s journey, but it’s also one of the most challenging as each partner’s relationship, personal history, and ability to participate in change can vary. Differences in how partners navigate change, if not recognized and explored, can make it difficult for the collaborative to achieve meaningful progress towards shared goals. How does one lead and navigate through these varying responses to change? In this new podcast episode, we explore this question and more with Dr. Nicole Caridad Ralston and Ileana Ortiz from the racial equity consulting firm Beloved Community . They have created a curriculum on navigating change, and we discuss the variety of skills needed to both lead and support change efforts, including: Why self-awareness is a critical part of working through change, including understanding one’s own history with and gut reaction to change How to work through change while centering anti-racism and anti-oppression Why it’s important to understand that change is both “head work” and “heart work” Why capacity building can be necessary to support your team or collaborative to work through change Resources and Footnotes Full transcript for this episode available at collectiveimpactforum.org Beloved Community Barbara Trautlein – Change Intelligence White Supremacy Culture Another CIF episode featuring Beloved Community: How Community Leads the Way with Participatory Action Research (PAR) From Dr. Nicole Caridad Ralston, here are some reflection questions for a change management process: How will you free up time and energy to focus on the change process? Where can you delegate projects or shift/share power? Who are the key people who can work with you to facilitate the change process? Who are the key influencers who need to embrace the vision and/or be included in the discussion and planning process? What permissions need to be secured? From whom? Who are the people/groups most affected by the proposed changes? What impact will each face? What can you do to help people embrace the change? How will you strengthen relationships during the change process? From Dr. Nicole Caridad Ralston, here are more commonly used change management frameworks: Lewin's Change Management Model: Main Principles: Lewin's model, based on the Unfreeze, Change, Refreeze stages, emphasizes the importance of addressing psychological resistance to change. The unfreeze stage aims to create awareness and challenge existing mindsets. The change stage introduces new behaviors, and the refreeze stage solidifies the new norm. McKinsey 7-S Model: Main Principles: The 7-S Model focuses on the interconnection of seven elements: Strategy, Structure, Systems, Shared Values, Skills, Style, and Staff. Alignment across these elements is essential for successful change. ADKAR: Main Principles: ADKAR focuses on individual change adoption through stages: Awareness, Desire, Knowledge, Ability, and Reinforcement. It recognizes the psychological journey individuals undergo during change. Bridges Transition Model: Main Principles: The Bridges Model emphasizes managing emotional transitions during change through stages: Endings, Neutral Zone, and New Beginnings.

For Philanthropy to Succeed, All Strategies Must Address Disability 1:10:40

36 weeks پیش1:10:40

1:10:40

Addressing issues related to disability and access are often cordoned off within the social sector and philanthropy. Disability is often deemed as “separate” from issue-specific systems change work, such as education, climate, economic mobility, or health equity. Funders supporting causes like these may think that their focus does not require including disability, or that addressing disability may make things “too complex” and “out of scope” for their issue-focused grantmaking efforts. This exclusion of disability from the wide spectrum of grantmaking has its own reverse multiplier effect. Instead of scaling change to reduce inequity and create the conditions for more people to thrive, excluding disability means that change only addresses a subset of people while overlooking communities deeply affected by systemic inequity. In this episode, we talk with a group of philanthropic leaders who are each dedicated to advancing disability justice. We discuss why addressing disability is imperative for all grantmaking to be successful, and how funders can embed disability across all of their philanthropic work. Featuring:- Miya Cain , Associate Director, FSG (Moderator) Rebecca Cokley , Program Officer of U.S. Disability Rights, Ford Foundation Ryan Easterly , Executive Director, WITH Foundation Sandy Ho , formerly Program Director, Disability Inclusion Fund, Borealis Philanthropy, and currently Executive Director, Disability and Philanthropy Forum Resources and Footnotes Disability Rights at Ford Foundation Disability Inclusion Fund at Borealis Philanthropy WITH Foundation Disability and Philanthropy Forum Sins Invalid Disability Visibility Project Ramp Your Voice The Curb-Cut Effect Imani Barbarin: Creating Accessible Spaces for Belonging More on Collective Impact Infographic: What is Collective Impact?

Why Understanding Local Context Is Critical for Collective Impact 50:50

39 weeks پیش50:50

50:50

Understanding a community’s “context” and its readiness for complex change work is a critical factor for launching and advancing collective impact work. Knowing the local context is necessary to support work with and within a community--who is part of the community, what are they experiencing, and what are their challenges, needs, assets, and opportunities? Where do relationships exist, and is there enough trust among participants to support a foundation for long-term work? Without a basic understanding of community context, supporting change within a community is difficult and runs the risk of causing more harm than good. In this episode, we learn about the state-wide initiative Community Organizing for Prevention (COFP) , which is working with 30 communities across Colorado to support youth and prevent substance misuse. By coaching and supporting community mobilizers who train local partners to advance collective impact work, COFP strived to create a collaborative infrastructure of support across the state, but early feedback indicated that each community had their own circumstances and needs, and there wasn’t one strategy that would address them all. We talk with Kit Jones (Colorado School of Public Health) and Marc Morgan (Community Organizing for Prevention, Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment) about how COFP moved forward with humility and deep listening, evaluating and evolving their strategies to support what their communities needed to equitably move forward. We also discuss how COFP, as a state funder, is working with other funders to sustain the work and create a stronger infrastructure for collective change across Colorado.

A core element of collective impact is changing systems in the pursuit of equity. Pursuing policy change and advocacy efforts are some of the key levers to effectively change how systems operate. But how can cross-sector partners within a collective impact initiative work together to co-create a policy agenda that addresses inequities and closes disparities? In this discussion we learn how a policy agenda can drive collaborative action and strategy to support collective impact work, how it can communicate where a collaborative stands on issues, what are the challenges in building a collaborative policy agenda (including bringing partners onboard), and how to approach shifts in the political environment. Joining for this discussion to share about their policy agenda work are Maegan Frierson and Dr. Shayla Young from KConnect , a backbone organization that supports a network of public, private, and independent organizations in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

We frequently receive questions from a wide variety of collaboratives that are experiencing challenges related to the mental health of their team and partners, and the impact that this has on the collaborative’s work. For this episode, we invited the national nonprofit Mind Share Partners to address some of those questions. Mind Share Partners focuses on changing the culture of workplace mental health so that both employees and organizations can thrive. In this discussion, we discuss four key topics that we often hear from collaboratives: How to deal with burnout How to manage conflict within the collaborative What to do if the collaborative doesn’t have a culture that supports the mental health of its participants How mental health can affect a collaborative’s sustainability and ability to make progress on its long-term goals In this discussion, we dive into these four topics with Mind Share Partners’ Bernie Wong and Carrie Grogan . They provide guidance and examples of what a collective impact effort can consider if its goal is to build a strong and sustainable culture that prioritizes the mental health of participants in the work.
