Who We Are
Kirsten Bording Collins, Founder/Principal Consultant
I am driven by the strong belief that it is possible to create a sustainable, equitable future and that we can learn to live in harmony with nature, however, we must adapt very quickly. My fundamental purpose is to be a part of the transformative change that is now needed across all sectors. I want to support those institutions, organizations and change agents working towards a regenerative future and help them better understand the systems they are working in; the interrelationships between the parts of these systems and where points of maximum leverage may be. My approach is to help build the adaptive capacity of these change agents to better understand their environment; innovate and take advantage of emergent opportunities; monitor progress; capture learning; and evaluate their efforts. I am passionate about helping change agents deal with uncertainty, navigate complexity and capture their impact.
