 Designing collaborative action for organisations and communities

3 day Leadership Development Course

BVSC in partnership with Interaction Institute for Social Change offer you the chance to take part in IISC's Making Collaboration Work TM.

The Making Collaboration Work workshop highlights the dual role of both designing and facilitating collaborative change processes.

Your involvement in the workshop is from the point of view of the participant as an initiator or member of a collaborative initiative.
What you will learn

 By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:

    * Present a clear rationale to a group of stakeholders about why a collaborative approach to your particular issue is best
    * Convene and facilitate a diverse group or team to agree on key elements of a collaborative change process and to guide the work
    * Complete a stakeholder analysis that identifies key stakeholders (supporters and potential blockers) and that describes how and when key stakeholders will be involved
    * Work with others to create an ‘involvement map’ for the collaborative initiative and facilitate stakeholder meetings to obtain input and build ownership of the process
    * Apply facilitation techniques to guide the group’s or community’s work throughout the different phases of the change process
    * Guide groups to balance success across three dimensions: results, process, and relationships
    * Assess your own and the group’s (or others) resistance and adaption to working collaboratively and develop strategies for dealing with this
