WORKSHOPS

Start With Clarity.

Our half-day facilitated sessions are designed for teams that need to break through a specific challenge and leave with clarity and a concrete path forward. Each session is built around pre-work IC conducts beforehand, so the facilitation is grounded in your specific situation.

Mission & Strategy Alignment

For: Nonprofits and academic institutions

The landscape has shifted. Your founding mission hasn't changed, but how you pursue it may need to. This session gives your leadership team the structured space to examine that tension and leave with clarity on what stays, what evolves, and what comes next.

OUTCOMES

  • Surface where your mission and current strategy are pulling in different directions

  • Name what should stay, what may need to shift, and what to let go of

  • Identify the decisions your leadership team needs to make—and in what order

Funding Diversification

For: Nonprofits and academic departments

Many organizations know they need to diversify their funding. Few have the capacity to build a strategy for doing so. This session assesses your current funding landscape, identifies your most viable funder audiences, and leaves your team with a prioritized roadmap you can begin acting on immediately.

OUTCOMES

  • Map your current funding landscape and where the gaps are

  • Identify your most viable funder audiences and why they fit

  • Build a starting-point roadmap your team can pressure-test and refine

Organization Realignment

For: Nonprofits, academic institutions, and corporations

Organizations don't fall out of alignment all at once. It happens gradually—through growth, leadership changes, competing priorities, or simply the pace of the work. This session gives your team the structured space to surface what's gotten muddled, work through the hard conversations, and move closer to a shared direction.

OUTCOMES

  • Name where friction or ambiguity has been slowing the organization down

  • Surface competing priorities and begin to work through them

  • Identify where there's enough common ground to move forward

Program Impact Assessment

For: Nonprofits, academic institutions, and corporations

Programs drift. What was designed to achieve one thing can quietly become something else over time, or simply stop working as well as it should. This session assesses your program against its intended goals, surfaces the gaps between design and delivery, and leaves your team with a clear set of recommendations for strengthening impact.

OUTCOMES

  • Examine how your program is performing against its original goals

  • Surface the gaps between what was designed and what is being delivered

  • Identify the highest-leverage changes for strengthening impact

Partnership Landscape & Strategy

For: Nonprofits, academic institutions, and corporations

The right partnerships can change what's possible, but many organizations don't have a clear picture of who the right partners are or how to pursue them. This session maps your current landscape, identifies your highest-potential opportunities across sectors, and leaves your team with a clear strategy for who to approach, why, and how.

OUTCOMES

  • Map your current partnership landscape across sectors

  • Surface your highest-potential opportunities and what makes them a fit

  • Define who to approach, in what order, and how

Social Impact Audit

For: Corporations and agencies

Whether you're building a social impact strategy for the first time or your existing one needs to catch up with a changed landscape, this session gives your leadership team a clear picture of where your current efforts stand, where to focus, and where the greatest opportunities for meaningful, strategic investment lie.

OUTCOMES

  • Take stock of where your current social impact efforts stand

  • Identify where focus is scattered and where it should be concentrated

  • Surface the opportunities for more meaningful, strategic investment
