To build a common agenda for change we need to form together as a community. To work together harnessing the power of mutually reinforcing activities we are bonded and empowered by the collective. Continuous communication requires us to not only receive good information but be willing to share it, engage in it and create opportunities for deep and lasting agreement; this comes through our commitment to each other and the community we are a part of.

When John Kania (of FSG and founder of the Collective Impact movement) read Deepening Community he shared these comments, ”Community has the power to change everything. No amount of innovation, individual brilliance, or money can transform our broken society as effectively and sustainably as building community.Deepening Community provides useful and inspiring guidance for leaders everywhere who seek to create better outcomes in their work."

In this workshop Paul shares not only the fundamental principles of Collective Impact, he provides key insights as one of North America’s top Community Engagement leaders on how Deepening Community can sustain us as leaders and the outcomes we so desire.
