Event Description
The Collective Impact Summit is an exclusive learning experience that will bring you the most current thinking and resources from the emerging field of Collective Impact. It is an opportunity to be part of a dynamic group of practitioners who are discovering new ways to lead, engage, and transform communities by tackling our most complex issues.
Thousands of people and organizations have embraced collective impact as a promising approach to community change. Our current systems for social impact are highly effective, our leaders are deeply talented, and the money we spend on creating a more equitable society is used remarkably well. But what is most needed now is a shared commitment to do things differently, to rethink how we engage a diversity of perspectives in our social change efforts and, as a result, reframe our understanding of the issues we care about.
This innovation calls for a new type of leadership. Join us in spectacular Vancouver, Canada on Sept. 28 – Oct. 2, 2015 for an exclusive opportunity accelerate your effectiveness at leading and implementing a Collective Impact approach. Be inspired by internationally renowned Thought Leaders, learn from your peers, experience innovation from around the world, and be re-energized in your work. Collective Impact gives us the tools to do more by doing differently. It offers a proven path forward for advancing large-scale social change.
“I welcome you to the second-ever Collective Impact Summit. Come and join other social change leaders as we chart a new path for making high-impact, lasting change a reality in our communities.” – Paul Born
