HERE'S HOW WE'RE DIFFERENT:
EXPERIENCE: ICL has been around since 1992 with coaching, training and publications for public sector collaborations, leaders and change agents.
EXPERTISE: Our founder & ceo, Hank Rubin, "wrote the book on this stuff." Hank's award-winning speaking, training and coaching help collaborations and collaborative leaders make change happen. Partnered with Kim McKinsey Mabry (ICL's coo), ICL is a vibrant resource for progressive leaders throughout the USA.
PURPOSE: Grounded in scholarship and decades of hands-on public sector leadership experience, ICL was founded as the nation's first thinktank and training center dedicated to Collaborative Leadership.
DEDICATED TO MAKING A DIFFERENCE: Today ICL is uniquely positioned to help nonprofit, philanthropic and civic collaborations and collaborative leaders make a positive difference ... collectively.

Collaborative Leadership: Developing Effective Partnerships For Communities & Schools
ICL-founder, Hank Rubin, wrote the book on Collaborative Leadership ... and it became an international bestseller!
Now, in its 2nd edition, the book that introduced the tools, principles, models and stories that launched ICL has been used by leaders, trainers, students, planners, evaluators and editorialists around the world.
(A quick search of Wikipedia shows the definitions of Collaborative Leadership and Collective Impact draw on Hank's writings derived from this book.)

OUR COACHING SERVICES
At ICL, we believe leadership entails more than having a good heart and being a good manager ... Leadership is about change and the dynamic relationships you'll need to make change happen.
While other coaches focus on teaching management skills and exploring abstractions, ICL is dedicated to the belief that the purpose of leadership is change. We focus on how to achieve progressive, sustainable, values-based change through collaborative relationships with those who can help make it happen.
Want to breathe life into your collaboration? Want to start or strengthen a task force, alliance, coalition or board? Want to solve a local or regional problem involving people and organizations that have never worked together before ... or not worked together very well?
Our coaching will help you develop the skills, confidence and collaborative outcomes of progressive nonprofit, education and civic leaders.
Our coaching reflects our values: relationships, social justice and change. And we offer coaching and training in a variety of formats to suit diverse learning needs, cultural and organizational contexts:
- One-on-one coaching (your pace and schedule)
- Advanced leadership seminars
- Public speaking
- Peer-to-peer seminars
- Team coaching
- Online coaching opportunities
