Collaboration Strategy & Infrastructure
We Build the Foundations for Collective Action
Transformational change requires people and organizations working together with purpose and clarity. We help communities, coalitions, and systems design how they collaborate, creating the conditions where diverse actors align, trust grows, and shared strategies take root.
We Design Governance, Relationships, and Shared Strategies
Collaboration needs more than goodwill; it requires intentional infrastructure. We build governance strategies, decision-making models, and engagement processes that balance broad input with effectiveness.
We Deliver the Tools and Structures for Sustained Partnership
Our work equips collaborations with the practical tools and structures they need to endure and adapt:
- Deep Listening and Insight Generation – Confidential interviews and insight reports that surface perspectives, capacity gaps, and opportunities for alignment.
- Coalition Activation and Convening – Design and facilitation of retreats, convenings, and shared learning arcs that build trust, momentum, and common ground.
- Governance and Backbone Strategy – Structures and processes that guide decision-making, accountability, and collective action.
- Narrative, Engagement, and Resource Tools – Coalition narratives, visual trackers, funder-facing strategies, and grant writing that strengthen influence and sustain collaboration.
When you work with ThinkPlace, you don’t just get infrastructure—you get the strategies, relationships, and resource pathways that make collaboration real and durable.
