Who we’re for
Collective Transitions is for individuals, groups and communities who work at the forefront of socio-ecological transformation.
Facilitators and stewards of change
We support those dedicated to social justice, human rights, land stewardship, protection of life, Indigenous rights, community building, education, the arts, and health.
For people carrying this work, staying well resourced and connected to themselves, each other and their deeper purpose is essential as persevering in moments of high intensity requires a grounded presence.
We offer spaces and practices that help changemakers navigate turbulence, rejuvenate, and deepen their craft.
Leaders and innovative organizations
Leaders and organizations often encounter the very patterns that underlie the social issue(s) they’re working to change.
These patterns may seem like progress obstacles, but actually they’re unique invitations to understand more deeply the underlying fragmentation and divides you are working to address, and to intentionally transform them from the inside out.
Many social change organizations reach a point where they need to: rethink their structures, address power dynamics, and refine long-term intentions.
We help leaders and organizations examine power dynamics, reshape cultures, and build systems-sensitive ways of working that can sustain long-term change.
Organizations and teams in transition
It is natural for organizations and teams to reach edges where existing ways of collaborating no longer carry the work forward. At these thresholds, effectiveness depends on shifts in inner attitudes, shared long-term visions, and governence structures and the ways decisions and responsibility are held. Being ready to let go and change is one thing, knowing how and what to change so that it's done with care, commitment, and precision is another.
Navigating complexity with multiple and conflicting expectations from internal and external stakeholders is an adventure. We guide companies and teams through these complex moments with care and precision, supporting them to let go of what no longer serves and move towards alignment. Our work equips teams to navigate complexity with greater clarity, coherence, and ease in the midst of change.
Land-based communities
Working within a community that aims to restore the past whilst co-creating a healthy and regenerative future often leaves us navigating situations where deep historical patterns surface, sometimes tracing back centuries.
These multiple layers of influence call for a multi-layered approaches. We help unlock the often dormant potential within communities to restore and re-align from within, strengthening their collective capacity to work with the complexities of stewarding land and life.
Networks and movements
Networks and movements often share a common set of values and vision, but can struggle to organize with coherence across their differences, nor adequately express their underlying intentions. These groups try to “do it right,” yet often hit internal blocks that halt progress.
We help these groups align their how with their what, creating the tools and conditions for collaboration, resilience, and generative patterns of sensing, thinking and responding in mission-driven work.
