It isn’t right for every project or process and is often not right for every organization.

For social benefit organizations to truly “work” we all need to be part of the design, the process, the success. Well, it is going to take everyone, whether you are part of an organization or receive services from one, whether you are a philanthropist or a volunteer, whether you work for a for-profit business or are a community member.
