Tools & Resources

One to Ones

1-1s foster the ability to:

  • build/deepen relationships
  • identify and develop leaders
  • gather new ideas
  • to determine someone’s self interest (i.e. what motivates them, that they care about deeply)
  • build organizations for action.

Reach out to an MFA team member for more information.

Listening Sessions

The goal of the listening session is to frame the community “as it is”, vs. the “ideal community”, and in so doing, determine what are the deepest felt issues, and what are improvements people would like to see.
