Collaborative Strategies Drive Results

Here is a collection of strategies that rely on collaborative leadership. They represent a range of possible approaches to problem solving, as there is not a single or best way to deal with multi-dimensional challenges like those we face in Hawaii. A detailed description of each strategy offers practitioners the opportunity to understand how other facilitators work … not to replicate, but to learn from and build on in their own practices.

We share these strategies with the hope that others will be inspired to add to the knowledge base and increase the capacity for collaborative leadership in our community.
