Many civil society organisations struggle to know when and how to work with consultants, especially if it's their first time. The most successful consulting relationships start with clear thinking about the challenge you want to solve through your collaboration, and can turn unexpected insights into an opportunity to co-create and strengthen outcomes.
Today’s mission-driven organisations are fuelled by their relationships. Networks provide adaptability, shared leadership, resilience, and innovation, making them vital models for impact in an interconnected world.
Strong networks are powerful, when they are purposeful.
We are proud to announce that we have published our second Impact Report marking a significant milestone in our journey towards social and environmental responsibility.
When strategies look the same across organisations due to unseen pressures, we call this 'isomorphic strategy'. But this tendency towards sameness - and its causes - deserves closer examination, particularly by civil society leaders seeking to deliver impact.
We have discussed the challenge of 'disconfirming evidence' and why it matters in philanthropy. Our new framework guides foundations through a process of understanding and incorporating contrary evidence into their decision-making. It's designed specifically for organisations pursuing systemic change, where traditional evaluation approaches often fall short.
We are delighted to announce the promotions of Ben Randall to Director and Nicola Doyle to Senior Consultant.
