Cities & Regions Transforming
A region is already a "meta-network", a network-of-networks. We help reveal and interconnect these networks for regional transformation.
Many times these regions are cities. They can also be towns, counties, states, or a nation.
We focus on both the worms-eye-view (individual) and the birds-eye-view (regions) for regions to heal and grow together. Transformation is only possible when all layers are a part of the strategy.
Locally, we practice this network craft through our city-network, Unify Dayton.
We do this in connection with the statewide network, Ohio Good Community Network, and the national network the City Leaders Collective.

“Connection doesn’t happen on it’s own. You have to design your gatherings for the kinds of connections you want to create.”
- Priya Parker, The Art of Gathering

Who does this work? Nationwide, these impact networks are becoming discoverable, visualized, and social. We connect these networks through awareness, introductions and gatherings to help them thrive and work together. We're not alone. On the next page we'll expose ways we are activating connections.
