Presenting a new framework for achieving impact at scale! Developed and tested with the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, the Walton Family Foundation, and six real-world conservation programs, the framework helps you find the pathways to take your work to scale. 👉 https://lnkd.in/egfMEQyu The framework describes five main scaling approaches and provides a decision tree to help you choose which approach(es) to use for your situation. It also gives guidance and tools for mapping out how the system works and who needs to do what. A key tool is the FOS Scaling Challenge, a step-by-step method that you can use to road-test your scaling idea. It helps you sketch out your scaling strategy by mapping out how the system works, defining the ultimate change you want to see, clarifying how you can get there, and checking the feasibility of the strategy. As a practitioner, you can use the framework to scale your own work. As a funder, you can support grantees in developing solid strategies for scaling. Together, we can make designing for scale the norm in conservation and take our global impact to the next level! This work was supported by the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation and the Walton Family Foundation and relies on the thinking done by the learning network: BirdLife International, Association BIOM, Conservation International, Damon Centola, EuroNatur Foundation, The Nature Conservancy, Rare, Redparques, Vulture Conservation Foundation , WCS Perú & Community of Practice Conservation Standard Projects on Indigenous Lands and Waters.

1yAs you consider designing projects for scale, please do not forget to support the people who will be asked to deliver at a larger scale, to hold bigger work, to hold a bigger vision. I love this sentence in the report: “the most powerful leverage points involve changing the underlying values, goals, and mental models of key actors in the overall system.” Give conservationists the coaching, training and support they need to uplevel their own values, goals and mental models so they can step into this bigger vision and take care of themselves. Bigger work can be heavier work. Prepare conservationists to hold it and they will stay in the game longer, they will be healthier, and they will help the vision expand.
