For organizations shaping meaningful and widely supported plans
A Community of Possibilities:
Visioning That Invites, Unites, and Inspires
Planning is not just about setting goals—it’s about how we invite people into the future we hope to create. This topic introduces Ideastructure, an original and practical framework that helps organizations and communities build bold, shared visions with creativity and lasting commitment.
It adds a vital civic dimension to planning—transforming it from a technical exercise into a participatory act of leadership. When people are engaged in shaping what comes next, planning becomes more than a document—it becomes a process of trust-building, alignment, and shared ownership.
Leaders explore how to move beyond rigid templates, engage people authentically, and anchor strategy in purpose and possibility. The result? Plans that people believe in—and are motivated to help bring to life.
Especially relevant for: cities, school systems, nonprofits, and
associations engaging in strategic planning or long-term visioning
Matt’s very good at encouraging positive brainstorming and thinking about how to translate ideas into actual actions.
Fast paced, dynamic, practical and future-oriented. Extraordinary education.
This was the most common-sense workshop I have ever attended. I am on fire!
