I highly recommend reading Embracing Emergence: How Collective Impact Addresses Complexity" by Mark Kramer and John Kania, guests on our podcast this week.
You can listen to this special podcast episode #11, where I had the rare opportunity to speak with both of the founders of the Collective Impact Framework, Mark Kramer and John Kania, as well as the Executive Director of the Collective Impact Forum, Jennifer Juster. These pioneering thought leaders work closely together to foster cross-sector dialogue through an international network of social impact organizations who are addressing systemic issues that can only be effectively engaged through collaboration, coalition building and emergent strategies. While this podcast was recorded in August 2019, the principles of collective impact are perhaps even more relevant now, in the post-Coronavirus / COVID-19 reality.
