Collective Impact has many years of experience in community-level work. We define the term “community” as a geographic location (neighborhood, town, city, county, region, state, etc.)
and/or a team of individuals and entities assembled around a common purpose (human services councils, small business associations, health collaboratives, community economic development teams, early childhood coalitions, etc.). We also have nearly two decades of experience working in the "intersections" of various and diverse disciplines and industries, helping those we serve make a greater impact collectively.

What's New
Collective impact is providing a training workshop for the
The Greater Kanawha Valley Foundation (TGKVF) “Building Bridges for Good Measure” conference. The topic for this training workshop is “Building Bridges for Organizational Sustainability and Community Impact.” The workshop will engage participants in interactive learning experiences to increase understanding, capacity, and action around regional/local collaboration. Participants will better understand the importance of collaboration in general and specifically leveraging new partnerships to reach common desired outcomes and gain support from funders. The session will address the “nuts and bolts” of collaboration and community-level work, the importance of working together in a rapidly changing environment, the “collective impact” approach, and engaging in collaborative team work for greater impact and results. It’s just like MAGIC (Making A Great Impact Collectively)!

Testimonials
"Working with Collective Impact was wonderful. The facilitators were skilled, organized and had great vision of what our project needed in order to be successful. We still receive so many compliments on our finished product, and even better, it is still a relevant piece of information that our organization and our community rely on to proceed with accomplishing our goals." ~ Amanda Moore – Executive Director, Clay County Business Development Authority, Clay, WV
Resources
Just as we were getting used to the information age, Daniel Pink tells us that it is ending. With it goes our focus on charts, statistics, and linear thinking. Traditional "left-brain" activities like logic, analysis, and repetitive production are being turned over to robots, computers, and offshore labor. The valued skills of 21st century will be those of the right brain: empathy, design, synthesis, and contextual thinking.
