Our team starts with a deep dive into your organization, including competition, strengths and weaknesses, effective practices and current hurdles. We also assess  the potential impact of prevailing trends. Throughout the process, we facilitate discussions that engage all strategy team members, gaining agreement to goals and strategies and establishing the steps required for effective action now and in the future.

Working Partner can also support clients in strategy implementation, including program development, grant-writing, formative evaluation and communications. We partner with both small and large organizations across many sectors and are uniquely qualified to manage complex, community-wide initiatives requiring multi-jurisdictional and multi-disciplinary approaches. In addition to identifying key partners to engage, we are experts in facilitating the identification of initiative goals and setting common metrics and reporting tools. Critically, our firm helps clients understand the landscape, identify best practices and assess the impact of the collaboration both on partners and their intended goal. Most recently, Working Partner has facilitated large community initiatives on improving maternal health, increasing access to behavioral health services and early childhood education.
