In this repost of a season 1 episode, I’m joined by Kerry Graham, one of the co-founders of Collaboration for Impact which is an Australian organization working to support systems-level change on important issues like youth incarceration, social issues, health, and more. This is incredibly interesting work, because it's dealing with issues that are often created by the system itself – about making change that is bigger than any one organization or group. Kerry and her co-founder Liz Skelton have just passed the reins for Collaboration for Impact to Anna Powell, and I wanted to reflect on Kerry's insights and experiences. I think you’ll enjoy this look at collaboration from a system perspective and hearing some of the stories of this type of collaboration.

Your host for the Cool Collaborations podcast is Scott Millar. Scott is the principle of Collaboration Dynamics, where he often works as a "peacemaker" by gathering people with different experiences and values and helping them navigate beyond their differences to tackle complex problems together.
