Public Affairs Council reposted this
Co-Founder of Social Driver, Chairman of National Digital Roundtable, Host of Chief Influencer Podcast
"If you want to go fast, go alone; if you want to go far, go together." Early in my career, I worked for Mayor Kay Barnes of City of Kansas City, MO. She is renowned for building coalitions - both formal and informal - to transform KC's urban core. Leaders with this ability always impress me, especially when they bring non-traditional partners to the table. A recent Public Affairs Council piece by Francoise Stovall reminds us that building a successful coalition requires innovative thinking and a willingness to look beyond traditional allies. Here are three key insights I took away: 🌈 𝗗𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗲 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽𝘀 𝗗𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁: Traditional partnerships are essential, but the real magic happens when you engage non-traditional allies. By collaborating with a broader spectrum of organizations, you can amplify your message and reach new audiences. Think outside the box and seek out partners who share your values but may not be in your immediate network. 🌳 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆-𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗲𝘀: Successful coalitions are grounded in the communities they aim to serve. Engage local leaders and grassroots organizations to ensure your initiatives resonate on a deeper level. By prioritizing the needs and voices of the community, you build trust and create more sustainable change. 🤝 𝗟𝗼𝗻𝗴-𝗧𝗲𝗿𝗺 𝗥𝗲𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴: Building a coalition is not a one-time effort. It's about fostering long-term relationships that can adapt and grow over time. Invest in ongoing communication and collaboration with your partners. This not only strengthens your current initiatives but also lays the groundwork for future projects. Building effective coalitions is about more than just numbers. It's about creating meaningful, strategic partnerships that can drive real change. #PublicAffairs #CoalitionBuilding #CommunityEngagement #StrategicPartnerships
