Register for “Why Collaboration Fails” Social Impact Workshop
Organizations collaborate more than ever to address complex social challenges—yet many collaborations stall or fail to produce lasting impact. This City Rising webinar introduces ecosystem thinking, a practical approach for understanding why collaboration struggles and how leaders can better align people, organizations, and resources to create meaningful change. Participants will explore the difference between program thinking, collaboration thinking, and ecosystem thinking, and leave with a downloadable Ecosystem Shift Guide and worksheet to help apply these ideas within their own work.
