Collective Impact is intended to help community leaders effectively
engage participants in strategic planning initiatives and achieve
desired results. It is a logical extension of, and builds on,
earlier efforts that experienced difficulties helping groups
implement actions identified in the planning processes. This book
examines successful practices that apply Collective Impact
principles to a variety of community development issues including
reducing poverty, and similar topics. Contributing authors also
examine techniques used in working with local groups to facilitate
effective changes in their communities. The discussions focus on
settings in which Collective Impact efforts are likely to succeed
using a variety of case studies that vary by intent, purpose, and
location. Discussions of involvement by community and campus
partnerships, regional planning organizations, and other groups can
affect the ways in which Collective Impact principles are applied
and how well they work. The discussions conclude with
transformational changes within Collective Impact, moving from the
individual to the system and future directions for Collective
Impact approaches. Practitioners and scholars alike will find the
discussions of various approaches and outcomes using Collective
Impact useful in designing future efforts to bring about community
change. This book was originally published as a special issue of
the journal Community Development.
