Practice Influences
In working with you, we draw from a range of approaches, methodologies, and practice frameworks, including:
Systems Thinking:
Identify underlying structures and systems that drive events and patterns, fostering lasting results.
Principled Negotiation:
Resolving conflicts by separating people from the problem, focusing on interests rather than positions, generating mutually beneficial options, and using objective criteria for decision-making.
Regenerative Futures Thinking:
Engaging people in developing collective visions for desired futures, facilitating decision-making and action on long-term, contentious challenges.
Collective Impact:
Shifting the conditions that maintain complex problems through collaborative efforts.
Design Thinking:
Utilising logic, imagination, intuition, and systemic reasoning to explore possibilities and address complex challenges collaboratively.
Appreciative Inquiry and Asset-Based Community Development:
Building on the strengths of communities and collaborators to ensure creations are grounded in what works.
These diverse influences guide our work, ensuring we apply the most effective strategies to support your goals and challenges.
