Frameworks

  • The Activate Framework™

    We work with our clients to map out the key players in your ecosystem, including stakeholders, community achors and supporters. Recognize their roles and how they can contribute to mutual success. Building strong relationships with these entities is crucial for fostering collaboration.


    • Presence – Reclaiming space (physically and metaphorically)

    • Partnership – Building shared value, not just visibility

    • People First – Centering lived experience as data

    • Place-Based Power – Using geography and culture as assets

    • Proof – Making outcomes tangible, shareable, and fundable

  • The Local Leverage Framework™

    Activating Neighborhood Power Through Entrepreneurs, Clusters & Workforces


    Neighborhoods have entrepreneurs, skilled residents, cultural institutions, commercial spaces, community organizations, and networks of support. The framework examines how these assets connect and where stronger connections could create economic opportunity.  It helps communities organize around three connected engines:

    • Entrepreneurs: The people starting, sustaining, and expanding local businesses.

    • Clusters: Groups of businesses and institutions connected by location, industry, customers, culture, or shared needs.

    • Workforces: Residents and workers whose skills, experience, and career goals can support and benefit from local economic activity.
