Build capability for participatory practice and systems innovation within your organisation, with fit-for-purpose guidance from an experienced practitioner and educator.
We work as a learning partner, not a typical consultant. Rather than offering simple solutions to complex problems, we work alongside you to strengthen your organisation’s ability to keep learning — about itself, its context, and the systems you’re part of. In practice, that means convening the conditions for collective sense-making and co-creation, conversing in ways that nurture honest reflection, and curating the data, stories and shared memory that help you track your own change over time.
We tailor a learning partnership with capability building and/or research and evaluation services to your context.
How we can help
We can review and provide specialist feedback on your plans for community engagement, service design and systems innovation, to enhance the efficacy and rigour of your practice.
We can conduct a capability assessment tailored to your organisation, to identify learning needs and opportunities for staff, ensuring that training, mentoring or coaching is targeted towards areas of need and growth, while building on existing skill bases.
We can develop and deliver a customised capability building program, including in-house training, coaching and/or mentoring.
We can advise on and review your strategic plan for co-design capability development in your organisation, with expert guidance on evaluation and communication, to assess and maximise the impact of professional development.
We can guide and support you in convening a learning network or community of practice, to ensure that your people have access to meaningful continuous professional development.
We can partner when
You're designing or delivering a new service or program and want to ensure it meets the needs of community members, partners and funders.
You're working alongside a community that your organisation hasn't previously engaged with, and you need to ensure you're doing so ethically and inclusively.
You're already committed to building design and innovation skills and capacity in your organisation, and wish to review the impact of your existing approach or explore options for more impactful activities.
You'd like to upskill your team in social design or innovation, but you need to understand their existing skills and knowledge before committing to training.
Your organisation or network is aiming to build community in its field of practice, and you're looking for guidance on convening a learning network for ongoing professional development.
You want to ensure your team or organisation captures and shares lessons about the process and impact of your co-design or systems innovation work.
