Our Co-Learning Approach
We are excited about the potential of impact networks to unleash the creative potential of people to solve complex problems through collaborative learning and action. Converge is committed to advancing the field of networks by making the practices of network leadership and coordination accessible to all. This is our commitment:
- We meet people where they are, recognizing that network leadership involves ongoing deepening of self-awareness and systems awareness.
- We make learning actionable, sharing concepts with interactive opportunities for participants to apply them to their real world challenges.
- We share practical tools that have evolved through Converge’s collaborations with a variety of networks across the globe.
- We draw on everyone’s wisdom, creativity, curiosity, and generosity.
- We embrace diverse learning styles and ways of knowing that integrate thinking, feeling, and doing.
- We believe in co-learning and encourage participants to participate as part of a team of two or more.
What Participants are Saying
“I found the insights and the process extremely rich. Navigating the shared-interest and the 20:40:40 model was a game changer for me. Thank you once again for this great opportunity.”
“You’ve given me a new way of thinking about pretty much everything. I’ve realized how stuck in this old paradigm I had been in. Thank you for nudging me to really see what impact networks are about.”
“I must say it’s been a blast being part of this cohort especially for someone like myself who is providing leadership for the first time in a network. I am grateful for the opportunity!”
I’m helping organize a new regional network – Atlantic Canada Climate Network – and am really sad to have missed this learning opportunity! Judging by the participants’ comments here, I’m sure it would have been a huge help.
Are any of the sessions available as recordings and/or are there other resources coming out of the series (or relating to it) that are available to folks who’ve missed the series?
