In his June 2012 Social Impact Exchange presentation, Jeff Edmondson reviewed the history of Strive as well as highlighted the focus of scaling practices, the creation of the Strive framework, the meaning of collective impact, the practice of continuous improvement through data, the understanding civic infrastructure, and the achievement of a greater social return on investment.
This video is a great introduction to the work of Strive, and a great refresher for those already familiar with the work.
