We start by making an argument about the challenges and opportunities for organizations in the “big picture” context – the forces that are shaping the environment. Climate change, politicization and polarization, technological transformation, mis/disinformation, dramatic social change, public health, inequality…it is against this backdrop that organizations need to engage their stakeholders.
We then center on stakeholders. One of the hardest – but most important – things to do as humans is to put ourselves into the shoes of others; to see the world through their eyes. Doing this will change the way that we think. This helps us understand others and ultimately to be better understood ourselves.
That explains what you are doing, with whom, and why: for some organizations, this is a theory of change; in politics, it might be the core platform or a call to action; in business, perhaps a vision of the future or a statement of motivation. What matters is that this idea is simple and clear, so stakeholders can pass it on to others. The best communicators boil everything down into a basic idea that they repeat, repeat, repeat. They are also clear about the arguments against the case they are making.
We talk about what it means to create this burning platform; to make a deep connection between people, bringing them together in a community.
And then we take our recommendations for action and drive them forward relentlessly.
