Solving complex problems often hinges on field catalysts or systems orchestrators. Explore their unique role in equitable systems change.
Given the many challenges we are facing?Covid-19, systemic racism, defending democracy?there is an urgent opportunity to reimagine and reinvest in more equitable systems and systems change work. But who makes change happen? And, what characteristics and skills enable leaders to effectively lead these efforts? Success in solving complex social problems frequently hinges on the work of leaders and organizations that harmonize the action of myriad actors?often referred to as field catalysts, systems orchestrators, or coalitions. We will share findings from recent research on the role field catalysts play, the assets they bring, and opportunities to support them. We will also discuss what it takes to do this work well, and what this year may hold as we embrace the opportunity to ?build back better??or more specifically, to build back with equity.
