Welcome to The Institute for Collaborative Leadership (ICL).
Coaching and training nonprofit, community, civic and government leaders to make real change happen ... collaboratively since 1992.
Our individual coaching services provide personalized guidance for leaders seeking to enhance their collaborative skills and achieve specific goals. Our team coaching and training services focus on strengthening trust, enhancing individual and collective skills, and building a culture of collaboration.
ICL staff also provides training and public speaking services that bring decades of experience, coaching, consulting, training, scholarship, storytelling and lives-well-lived to your organization!
ICL's founder, Dr. Hank Rubin, is cited as launching the study of public sector "collaborative leadership" (click here), as defining the difference between "collaboration" versus "collective impact" (click here), and even with inventing the fun word "pracademic" (click here)!
Since 1992, we've helped organizations protect and serve the interests of children and families, education, social justice and more.
This work has never been more important!
Our expert guidance and tools can help your organization build and manage effective public partnerships, measure their impact, and make a positive difference in your community.

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.
If you're the kind of leader who wants to lead for a change, contact ICL for a free exploration.
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.)

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:
