MY NEW BOOK (TOOLBOX) - IT’S HERE. IT’S WHAT YOU SET IN MOTION: A TOOLBOX FOR COLLABORATIVE CHANGEMAKING https://lnkd.in/eiqpTSDd It’s been a 20+ year labor of love. And the first edition is done just in time to help you kick off your 2024 changemaker journey! I’ve been so fortunate to wear so many #changemaking hats over the years working with and learning from innumerable people that I so admire. It’s been quite a #changemakingjourney. And anyone who knows me knows that along the way I’ve been obsessed(?) with creating simple tools, resources, and methodologies for the HOW of collaborative changemaking (Is there any other kind?) To that end, roughly two years ago I decided to put everything in one place to benefit aspiring and practicing #changemakers everywhere. This book (#toolbox ) includes 22 #strategicprinciples (Changemaking Trimtabs) with worksheets, 13 Changemaking #toolkits with 76 #tools with worksheets, links to 90 curated Changemaking #innovation Mini-Cases (short videos from around the world), foundational HOW-TOs, a library of other great resources, and a palace to learn and solicit use cases on an ongoing basis (Changemaker #Coach). I built all of the worksheets in Google Sheets and have included QR codes/ hyperlinks throughout so that this can be used in person and #virtually. Everything can be used independently or scaffolded. Massive, massive #gratitude to the thousands and thousands of people who made this possible. I hope you know who you are, and I hope this honors you. P.S. - Look in the gratitude section in the back. Please reach out if I can be of service or if you’d like to learn more. Much more to come… #collaboration, #mindsets, #socialinnovation, #socialentrepreneurship, #teamwork, #problemsolving, #opportunityidentification, #humancentereddesign, #systemsthinking, #changemakereducation, #skillsets, #empathy, #empathyinaction, #equity, #empowerment, #communityimpact, #communityengagement, #adaptiveleadership, #globalcitizenship, #resilience, #consulting, #entrepreneurshipeducation, #servicelearning, #professionaldevelopment Ashoka

30-MINUTE WORKSHOP GUIDANCE (98 WORKSHOP OPTIONS) The resources in IT'S WHAT YOU SET IN MOTION: A TOOLBOX FOR COLLABORATIVE CHANGEMAKING are super simple to use in all kinds of contexts (school, private sector, nonprofits, conferences, etc). In particular, I use them for #facilitating #workshops all the time. To note, I embed this approach for #professionaldevelopment (#learninganddevelopment), #consulting, in #courses, when I #guestlecture, with #communities, when I'm facilitating at #conferences, etc. I've attached some guidance that I hope you find helpful. Download it and share it. Don't hesitate to reach out to me if you'd like some help or if you'd like to host/ set up a workshop. And if you haven't bought the book, you can get it at Amazon here - https://lnkd.in/gRpvWMPq Collaborative Changemaking Social EntrepreneurU Social Entrepreneur Corps Ashoka #socent #collaboration #collaborativelearning
