Partnerships for Progress
Developing a sustainable capacity requires a deep understanding of the complete lifecycle of change. From the initial idea to planning and implementation, programs require a holistic approach to ideation, requirements, regulations, as well as an objective view of the stakeholders and drivers that make up the complete operational landscape. The Daniel Group’s “Partnerships for Progress” is designed to support teams anywhere in the world through planned knowledge sharing workshops and mentoring.
Our team works with in-country agencies and groups to produce a well-defined, objective, data-driven basis for action. Our playbooks and libraries empower local people to plan, act, and do … and sustain… change in their local environment.
We actively seek partnerships with in-country organizations to support programs and projects. Using individual and group training, our team provides world-class capacity building support.
Support Across the Lifecycle
Our team works with local groups to build a comprehensive operational landscape to provide objective change drivers, promote transparency, define requirements and illustrate capacity gaps.
Through workshops and mentoring, our team helps organizations understand the impacts of change to local, regional and national scope.
