Welcome to…
Arising is a community enterprise delivering services to organisations and individuals who need to understand and act on emerging sustainability challenges and opportunities.
Individuals and organisations seek us out for:
- Clarity about their own intentions and priorities, and how to translate that into effective and timely action for social end ecological benefit,
- Insight into how to shift the dynamics (social, ecological and financial) inside their own organisations, their communities, and in the world around them,
- Fresh perspectives on their challenges, opportunities and patterns of seeing and working,
- Regular and ongoing support from a good listener with an extensive toolkit of resources.
Our work is focused on simplifying complexity, decoding information from the ecological, social and financial context so that you can act in alignment with the wisdom of: your organisation, your community, or those within related professions.
I (Andrew) am working full-time, but if you want to see what we are currently working on and how we could collaborate, see current projects. You can also get a sense of what I can offer, or am interested in from past projects.
Through Arising I do consultancy, design, research, training, facilitation, strategic planning and specialise in three areas of work:
Developing collective intelligence and unleashing collective intent
We work to inspire collective action through pooling, organising, and developing collective intelligence in organisations, communities or networks.
Growing social innovation, businesses and entrepreneurs
We support social entrepreneurs and social businesses in their efforts to be effective and resilient when faced with growth and change. We also work with individuals and communities for whom social business is an appropriate means to sustainable meet their most pressing needs.
Learning through action, inquiry and feedback
We facilitate individual, organisational and ’system’ learning through action, inquiry, and creation of ongoing feedback mechanisms that build on what’s working to reach success.
