‘We Are For Good’ Showcases How a Tri-Sector Mindset Expands Impact Possibilities

 

You couldn’t ask for more engaged and enthusiastic podcast hosts than Becky Endicott and Jonathan McCoy, and we are thrilled they featured NewImpact Founder and CEO Jens Molbak on their ‘We are for Good Podcast!

This episode digs deep into the value of Tri-Sector Innovation (TSI), narrowing the focus to the nonprofit sector, but then widening the lens to illustrate how much each sector stands to benefit by adopting a tri-sector mindset and tools.

Key take-aways from this in-depth conversation include:

  • Cross-Sector partnerships don’t need to be complicated!

Working with organizations across sectors doesn’t have to be complicated. Resources can be borrowed and self-interests aligned in ways that ensure benefit for all. Tri-Sector Innovation is all about the win-win-win.

  • Smart resource sharing—It’s all about leveraging and repurposing what already exists.

Resources are not limited to money and funding; a private org might have trucks to use, or warehouse space, or a server. The government has comprehensive databases. Nonprofits have trusted relationships. How can we connect and build upon these resources to create opportunities and solutions that create benefits across the board?

 
  • Mindset-Shifting and Impact Uprising = Faster, Better, Stronger.

Great things can happen when we start to see the world and its abundant resources in a different way and discover innovative ways to align goals and self-interests. By working together across sectors, we can create more impact, faster, and at scale.

  • NewImpact is Creating the Tools to Create Impact.

We’re actively rolling out our new and improved Tri-Sector Innovation Canvas and inviting listeners/innovators/entrepreneurs to try it out for themselves—for free!

Philanthropy on its own does amazing work—but we can be so much more powerful in our approach to problem solving if we take an integrated, “all of society” approach. If you’re inspired by our approach, we encourage you to support our work!
