Who We Are

​

The Collaborative Collective is dedicated to leading the way in supporting and empowering mission-driven organizations. Creating lasting impact requires nonprofits and social enterprises to be the best stewards of their limited resources, seizing opportunities to build efficiency while keeping people at the center of care, service, and quality. This is the way forward in creating sustainable, transformative change. Our team is committed to future-proofing your mission and equipping your organization to thrive in an ever-evolving world. We provide the thought leadership, support, tools, and strategies you need to navigate the complexities of today and tomorrow so you can focus on what matters most—your mission.

Our Mission & Vision

​

Our Mission

The Collaborative Collective’s mission is to empower social changemakers with the resources and tools to scale their impact.

 

Our Vision

We envision a world where mission-driven organizations are not merely reacting to change but are actively harnessing innovation to shape the future of community service. We strive to be the catalyst helping nonprofits and social enterprises future-proof their mission and lead with confidence.

​

Our Values​

 

Innovation

“Leading the way into the future of work.” We are passionate about pushing the boundaries of what’s possible for mission-driven organizations. We are driven to consistently explore new ideas, technologies, and methods to help our clients maintain a missional advantage. Whether through digital transformation, strategic foresight, or cutting-edge enablement practices, we ensure that your organization is not just prepared for the future but is actively leveraging it to maximize impact.

​

Kindness

“Radical candor defines our conversations and work style.” Kindness is our operating principle in every interaction. This means delivering hard news with sensitivity, fostering a supportive environment, and having genuine respect for the needs and perspectives of our clients, partners, and vendors. 

 

Humility

“We don’t know everything.” Expertise is shared. We own our expertise while deeply respecting the knowledge and experiences of others. Our approach is always rooted in curiosity, asking questions rather than making assumptions. When we make mistakes, we apologize and take steps to make amends, continuously learning and growing from our experiences.

​

Emotional Intelligence

“Our humanity is our future.” Our work is people-centered, meaning we get things done without compromising the well-being of those around us. We care deeply about everyone in our circles—clients, partners, and team members alike—and actively seek what’s best for them. Our commitment to emotional intelligence ensures that we speak truth to each other with the intention to serve, support, and uplift, ultimately furthering our clients’ missions.

 

Diversity

“Diversity makes us better.” We believe that diversity of experiences, identities, and perspectives strengthens our work. We are collectively committed to antiracism, amplifying marginalized voices, and ending systems of oppression. We regularly seek diversity, equity, and inclusion training as part of our professional development and intentionally building diverse teams. Togetherness is at the heart of our work, and even though we operate remotely, we remain connected across geographies.

 

Professionalism

“We deliver what we say we will and have a good time doing it.” Excellence and accountability are the hallmarks of our professionalism. We meet deadlines, deliver on promises, and take full responsibility for our work—both successes and failures. In fact, we even celebrate our mistakes, seeing them as opportunities to learn and grow. We believe in enjoying the process and bringing joy into our work.
