Development
Our Mission
Our Work
Rethinking
Organizations
We work with organizations to develop their "system capacities": the knowledge, skills, and processes to adapt creatively to complex environments.
Reimagining
Projects
We create spaces to help organizations think outside the project box and design adaptive program models that trust and invest in local communities.
Rebooting
Systems
We help organizations, groups, and networks understand the larger systems in which they operate and identify ways to make them more equitable, effective, and impactful.

Rules and habits favor solutions driven by a single organization.

We facilitate collaborative action to address broken systems and solve complex social problems.

Norms and bureaucratic structures reward external solutions from outside “experts”.
Our approach:
We work to redirect resources, leadership and power to local actors.
Engineered
to Emergent
Traditional approach:
Incentives and funding models promote linear project plans focused on pre-determined outcomes.
Our approach:
We adapt to navigate complexity, embrace failure, and leverage learning.
