Introduction to Collaborative Innovation

January 15, 22 & 29, 2025 
11:00 - 2:30 pm PT | 2:00 - 5:30 pm ET 


Start your new year with us!

This foundational course is an introduction to the key elements of Collaborative Innovation—a process model and set of tools that enable leaders to
effectively lead impactful change with diverse stakeholders across different organizations and sectors. This is a fast-paced, immersive—and, at times, challenging—dive into the “Four Agendas” of Collaborative Innovation: connecting, aligning, learning, and making.

We've designed this workshop for changemakers, leaders, facilitators, collective impact backbone staff, and consultants. If the problem you're facing seems hugely complicated, with a lot of moving parts across a lot of different groups, this course is the perfect jumping-off point.
