Session Description:
We are launching a webinar series to provide a space for practitioners and researchers in both the leadership and network development areas to connect and learn from each other. Often these groups are not connected and we want to build awareness and even collaboration across the research – practice divide. We will focus on the intersection of leadership and network development. After clarifying the various ways in which leadership and networks intersect, we will consider the following questions: what does it mean for people in networks who see the need to be more intentional about developing leadership, and what does it mean for leadership development practitioners to design and deliver programs that better equip their participants to effectively utilize network strategies and tools.
This first webinar will start to explore the intersection between leadership and networks, and introduce a relational perspective of leadership. The three partnering organizations will discuss concrete examples and ideas from their work, and then participants will have a chance to ask questions.
Register for this first webinar with The Center for Creative Leadership, NYU/Wagner, and The Leadership Learning Community
The Greenlining Institute was founded as a response to institutional redlining of communities of color from economic opportunities. Twenty-two years later, the organization has grown in both scale and impact, including incorporating a strong commitment to the leadership development of emerging leaders of color. With its successes and challenges, Greenlining has learned many lessons on the road to positive social change. This webinar will focus on how the organization has evolved and created a renowned leadership development program for social justice leaders, while always maintaining its roots in racial equity and advocacy. In using the organization’s journey as a case study, participants will receive a perspective and best practices for incorporating a leadership development program from foundation to evaluation.
Growing numbers of social change agents are building networks to increase impact. Using real-life case examples, this webinar offers an introduction to basic network concepts and approaches with an emphasis on how practitioners can strengthen their network through systematic monitoring and evaluation. Highlights from a recent framing paper and casebook developed by Network Impact and the Center for Evaluation Innovation include examples of leading evaluation frameworks and practical methods/tools.
This second webinar in the Network Leadership Webinar Series is brought to you by the Center for Creative Leadership, NYU Wagner, and the Leadership Learning Community.
Presenting is Chris Ernst from Juniper Networks.
We recently posted the Leadership and Race synthesis and are working with the writing partners to develop the publication. The Leadership and Networks synthesis outline has also been posted. We would like to engage you in discussion and questions that can strengthen these publications.

In this third webinar of the Network Leadership Series, Professor Angel Saz-Carranza will explore the question of how formal networks of organizations, created to reach a collective goal (also known as goal-directed networks), work to support the overarching network goals. Goal-directed networks often create a separate organizational unit to broker and administer the network as a whole called Network Administrative Organizations (NAOs).
The webinar will answer questions like:
How organizational units lead and broker the work of network members to ensure that the network as a whole achieves a collective network goal. finds the direction it needs, aligns the activities of its members, and helps them stay committed and ready to collaborate
How leadership strategies are different when the work is not internal to a single organization
Drawing from the work of immigration coalitions in the U.S. as examples of an important type of network, Saz-Carranza unpacks the leadership dynamics of formal goal-directed networks. These network member organizations join together to accomplish a common goal that is different from each organizational member but that contributes to advance their individual missions.

Working in networked ways is fundamentally different than traditional ways of working. Organizations can commit to a network approach yet not fully realize all the pieces and behaviors needed to make it actually work.
Carole Martin and Beth Tener will share their insights as coaches/facilitators with a wide range of social change network initiatives. They'll explore what they have been learning about which networks get traction and grow and which ones stumble, related to these themes:
What does organization readiness to embrace the network approach "look like"? How do board and staff members organize their time, priorities, and mindset differently?
How does leading look different both within and outside your organization?
What are some key pitfalls and lessons learned that you can keep in mind as you design for a more inclusive, joyous and connected way of working?
If your organization is pursuing networked ways of working, considering going this route or are on your way and hitting some bumps in the road, this will be a helpful conversation to participate in and invite in colleagues who are still learning.

Building a Coalition (The Woodson Foundation)AN_Rajin
The case focus on nonprofit social organization called The Woodson foundation who wants to build a cohesive coalition among its stake holders who are the Washington DC School and The NCPIE. They want to create an after school program where they faced several types of problem. The background of this case is Nonattendance of students, Crime, high teacher turn over and group development.
The main objective of this case is that, The Woodson foundation wants to improve students’ performance and outcomes. Reducing crime increasing student’s attendance and decreasing teacher’s turnover ratio through After School program. For this they create two team, one is Development team and another is Program team.

CRISPR-Cas9, a revolutionary gene-editing tool, holds immense potential to reshape medicine, agriculture, and our understanding of life. But like any powerful tool, it comes with ethical considerations.
Unveiling CRISPR: This naturally occurring bacterial defense system (crRNA & Cas9 protein) fights viruses. Scientists repurposed it for precise gene editing (correction, deletion, insertion) by targeting specific DNA sequences.
The Promise: CRISPR offers exciting possibilities:
Gene Therapy: Correcting genetic diseases like cystic fibrosis.
Agriculture: Engineering crops resistant to pests and harsh environments.
Research: Studying gene function to unlock new knowledge.
The Peril: Ethical concerns demand attention:
Off-target Effects: Unintended DNA edits can have unforeseen consequences.
Eugenics: Misusing CRISPR for designer babies raises social and ethical questions.
Equity: High costs could limit access to this potentially life-saving technology.
The Path Forward: Responsible development is crucial:
International Collaboration: Clear guidelines are needed for research and human trials.
Public Education: Open discussions ensure informed decisions about CRISPR.
Prioritize Safety and Ethics: Safety and ethical principles must be paramount.
CRISPR offers a powerful tool for a better future, but responsible development and addressing ethical concerns are essential. By prioritizing safety, fostering open dialogue, and ensuring equitable access, we can harness CRISPR's power for the benefit of all. (2998 characters)
Defecation
Normal defecation begins with movement in the left colon, moving stool toward the anus. When stool reaches the rectum, the distention causes relaxation of the internal sphincter and an awareness of the need to defecate. At the time of defecation, the external sphincter relaxes, and abdominal muscles contract, increasing intrarectal pressure and forcing the stool out
The Valsalva maneuver exerts pressure to expel faeces through a voluntary contraction of the abdominal muscles while maintaining forced expiration against a closed airway. Patients with cardiovascular disease, glaucoma, increased intracranial pressure, or a new surgical wound are at greater risk for cardiac dysrhythmias and elevated blood pressure with the Valsalva maneuver and need to avoid straining to pass the stool.
Normal defecation is painless, resulting in passage of soft, formed stool
CONSTIPATION
Constipation is a symptom, not a disease. Improper diet, reduced fluid intake, lack of exercise, and certain medications can cause constipation. For example, patients receiving opiates for pain after surgery often require a stool softener or laxative to prevent constipation. The signs of constipation include infrequent bowel movements (less than every 3 days), difficulty passing stools, excessive straining, inability to defecate at will, and hard feaces
IMPACTION
Fecal impaction results from unrelieved constipation. It is a collection of hardened feces wedged in the rectum that a person cannot expel. In cases of severe impaction the mass extends up into the sigmoid colon.
DIARRHEA
Diarrhea is an increase in the number of stools and the passage of liquid, unformed feces. It is associated with disorders affecting digestion, absorption, and secretion in the GI tract. Intestinal contents pass through the small and large intestine too quickly to allow for the usual absorption of fluid and nutrients. Irritation within the colon results in increased mucus secretion. As a result, feces become watery, and the patient is unable to control the urge to defecate. Normally an anal bag is safe and effective in long-term treatment of patients with fecal incontinence at home, in hospice, or in the hospital. Fecal incontinence is expensive and a potentially dangerous condition in terms of contamination and risk of skin ulceration
HEMORRHOIDS
Hemorrhoids are dilated, engorged veins in the lining of the rectum. They are either external or internal.
FLATULENCE
As gas accumulates in the lumen of the intestines, the bowel wall stretches and distends (flatulence). It is a common cause of abdominal fullness, pain, and cramping. Normally intestinal gas escapes through the mouth (belching) or the anus (passing of flatus)
FECAL INCONTINENCE
Fecal incontinence is the inability to control passage of feces and gas from the anus. Incontinence harms a patient’s body image

15. Networks
• Clarifying shared purpose (what can
we only do together that we can’t do on
our own)
• Equal peer relationships based on
generosity and reciprocity
• Requests and offers (not necessarily
on the same issue)
• Actively seeking diversity
• Clear rules of engagement
(membership)
• Peer working and review
• Member resourcefulness and mutual
trust
• Trying things out iteratively
Useful For:
• Generating creative and
innovative solutions
• Rapid learning and
development
• Amplifying the
effectiveness of
individual members
18. The distinctiveness of networks
lies in:
• Their ability to be innovative and creative and their
reliance on diversity
• The distribution of power and leadership across
members
• Reciprocity and exchange as the defining relationship
between members based on mutual interest around a
common purpose
• Fluctuations in their member engagement and impact
• Their adaptability to survive and thrive
• The centrality of the knowledge function
19. Networks Work & Are Sustained When:
• There is clear shared purpose and identity
• They are creative and innovative
• They meet member needs
• They are supported by adapted leadership
• They have strong relationships and ties
• They generate helpful outputs
20. Networks Fail Because Of:
• Failure to reach common understanding across members
on purpose and direction
• Institutionalisation
• Mistakes in initial design
• Over-management cementing relationships and structures
that need to be dynamic and evolving
• Over expectation of network member’s willingness or
ability to collaborate which damages creativity of the parts
• Predicating some members over others
• Constraining network member’s independence
• Not recognising when leadership needs to change / rotate
• Lack of impact in terms of network member’s purpose.
21. Sustainability Depends on
• Progress on Purpose
• Members Engaged
• Securing Impact – on the key functions
• Resources
Networks are time-limited
24. Member’s Roles
• Networks are their members.
• The core organizing principle of reciprocity
based on a relational culture of trust, respect,
openness, sharing, as peers defines how
networks organise and creates the focus for all
participation.
• Members determine Governance (decision-
making), Leadership, Purpose, Direction,
Communication, Knowledge generation and
sharing.
25. Securing Shared Purpose Answers...
• Fundamentally, why does the network exist?
• For whose benefit are all our efforts being made?
• What, in our eyes, is the end that we are working to rather than a
means?
• What is the worthwhile cause to which we are all contributing?
• At the end of the day, what is the real point of all our activities?
• Who are we really working for?
• What is of highest value for us?
• What is our higher purpose?

30. How do your network members connect with each other?
The network’s members connect through a variety of means, both
face-to-face and virtually. Its sub-groups meet face-to-face on a
quarterly basis, and also have online forums that they can use to
link in with each other, as well as email when necessary.
Members are also supported centrally through the following
means:
• Lunchtime webinars • A monthly e-bulletin for anybody who is
interested • Large events once a year • A Quality Improvement
awards event with Northern networks • A monthly call with the
national team that aims to share tools, learning and practices.
31. Networks do at least one of the
following with and for their members:
• Amplify the work of individual members.
• Generate greater visibility for work done by the members.
• Generate new knowledge.
• Shape the context (policy-level, donor-level) in which the
network functions.
• Deliver services/ outputs to others as a ‘network offer’ and
can deliver services/ resources between members as a
‘support’ offer (e.g. back-office roles) where there are
economies of scale.

shared these great tips on community
management for online membership :-
• Get people talking
• Initiate ice-breaker conversations
• Ensure every new post gets a response
• Improve response velocity
• Ask questions
• Connect members
• Demonstrate value
34. As peers
network members govern their peers (self-
governance) and their own behaviour in relation
to:
(a) The impact of the network
(b) The network rules of equality, reciprocity and
participation.
35. Building Capacity
Articulating the extent to which the agreed values, priorities
and activities of the network coincide with the existing
values, priorities and activities of participating organisations
and individuals.
Supporting participants to find ways to build networked
learning into their daily professional lives, rather than seeing
it as an add-on or as more work.
Whilst some of the motivation to participate comes from
something new, participants and organisations need to be
able to build on what they already know and can do already.
Andrew Constable
36. Building Capacity Qs
What opportunities will you create for participants to build
coherence and connectedness between network activity and
their ongoing commitments? How does the network add value
for them? For their organisation?
How will the network be open about its aims and values? How
will you know whether others share them? How will you
celebrate and build on diversity?
How can you mobilise the network to support organisations and
individuals through turbulent times?
What opportunities will you create for participants to connect
their experience to the ‘big picture’ (e.g. policy, the future of their
profession, moral purpose)?
40. Networks measure:
1. Impact related to the
network’s purpose
2. Member perception and
relationships in terms of
meeting member needs
3. How effectively they use
their resources

41. LEVEL 5: The network is acknowledged by members and stakeholders alike for its impact. Members
are proud of their accomplishments together, and tell stories of measurable impact and innovation. The
network reviews the impact is it having in order to understand and repeat its successes. Specific
external stakeholders and influencers are targeted with impact stories.
LEVEL 4: The network tracks, captures and shares success stories, with evidence of benefits and
impact. These stories are celebrated and communicated to an external stakeholders and audiences.
Stakeholders understand the impact the network is having, and actively promote this.
LEVEL 3: The network members have a shared understanding of the value they add. Some senior
stakeholders visibly acknowledge this. Examples exist which clearly demonstrate clear impact, for
example, on patient outcomes.
LEVEL 2: Some members can point to examples of value and impact, but nobody has the big picture.
Some success stories may be captured, but in an ad-hoc manner. Senior stakeholders are aware of the
impact, but lack passion to really promote this.
LEVEL 1: Impact is not really discussed. Members are comfortable just to ‘belong to the club’. Nobody
takes responsibility for capturing and sharing successes or prompting the “Are we making a difference?”
conversation.

LEVEL 4: The network tracks, captures and shares success stories, with evidence of benefits and
impact. These stories are celebrated and communicated to an external stakeholders and audiences.
Stakeholders understand the impact the network is having, and actively promote this.
LEVEL 3: The network members have a shared understanding of the value they add. Some senior
stakeholders visibly acknowledge this. Examples exist which clearly demonstrate clear impact, for
example, on patient outcomes.
LEVEL 2: Some members can point to examples of value and impact, but nobody has the big picture.
Some success stories may be captured, but in an ad-hoc manner. Senior stakeholders are aware of the
impact, but lack passion to really promote this.
LEVEL 1: Impact is not really discussed. Members are comfortable just to ‘belong to the club’. Nobody
takes responsibility for capturing and sharing successes or prompting the “Are we making a difference?”
conversation.
45. Planning for Sustainability
Plan early for sustainability
Thinking ahead.
Building reach and ownership.
Creating extensive, purposeful and interdependent
collaboration.
Interdependent working and learning arrangements.
Generate Feedback loops
47. LEVEL 5: The network is not reliant on a specific individual to maintain momentum.
Multiple channels (e.g. voice, data, email, webcast) are used innovatively.
Dialogue is rich and varied, incorporating personal exchanges and business focus.
There is an agreed strategy for growth, funding and recruitment of new members.
LEVEL 4: Newcomers rapidly feel welcome and involved and bring new energy to
the group. Dialogue is stimulating and there is a sense of dynamism and interest.
Fresh thinking is regularly brought into the network through external input.
Sources of funding and support are understood.
LEVEL 3: Membership grows organically at expected levels.
Funding and support are discussed. Members talk about the future of the network
and are ambitious for growth.
LEVEL 2: The network is viable, but membership is static. No plans to recruit new
members or pursue additional sources of funding.
Opportunities to merge with overlapping communities are not discussed.
Dialogue is predictable and not varied.
LEVEL 1: The network is ticking-over on the basis of goodwill but competition for
members’ time leads to periods of drought.
It’s all about survival rather than sustainability.

Professor Becky Malby, Professor of Health Systems Innovation at London South Bank University and Liz Maddocks-Brown and Rob Cockburn, Senior Improvement Managers and network specialist in NHS England’s Sustainable Improvement Team
Becky is a and enthusiastic leader of change with a track record in organisational and leadership development in the public sector. Becky has a longstanding interest in networks – particularly in healthcare where she has quite literally written the book on it! This is why we are pleased to have been able to commission her to deliver these webinars and to be working in partnership with SBU to host and develop the S4N site
This is where Sustainable Improvement Team, which sits as part of NHS England, as a strand of its work , takes a strong interest supporting network development and build network leadership capability and Large Scale Change, as it contributes to the achievement of NHS England's top 10 priorities and the delivery of the 5YFV
And specially , the focus of our Team , which based on scoping, research and consultation with the service-our advisory and user group for this work - aims to……
This is where the Source4Nertworks platform comes in, in a partnership with LSBU, based on pervious work in one of the improvement legacy bodies and the university of Leeds – the platform has been redesigned and relaunched this summer and is designed to …..
Networks are their members. The core organizing principle of reciprocity based on a relational culture of trust, respect, openness, sharing, as peers defines how networks organise and creates the focus for all participation. It follows that there are four key areas for organising practice in networks (Anderson-Wallace 2011)
Power & Leadership - How is power used and leadership enacted? How do decisions get made?
Purpose and Direction - How are the joint and several purposes of the network surfaced, how are these purposes developed and how is direction set and adjusted? How expectations of action are set, maintained and measured / evaluated?
Communication – How do you ensure that communication is supported as a primary organising process, which constitutes and reconstitutes the network moment by moment?
Knowledge & Learning – How do you ensure that knowledge is developed as a shared asset and that social learning opportunities are maximised?
Anderson-Wallace M (2011) Organising to connect – Networks n healthcare. Occasional Paper. The Health Foundation.
The membership has to agree the ‘rules of engagement’ for the network including what participation (joining in) looks like, and how the network communicates internally (how everyone in the network has access to intelligence) and externally.
You can see at this stage that you don’t have the access to the tools but preview them You can preview the survey here.
There are 3 key tools for you and each of these is explained in more detail on the site
As a member you can download these and become familiar with what they are.
The Core Q looks at the key features of effective networks
http://www.source4networks.org.uk/resources
Amplify the work of individual members – helping and supporting members to learn how to do their work even better than they do it now.
Generate greater visibility for work done by the members within the overall network’s purpose and add to the members' reputation.
Generate new knowledge which will help all network members in their own roles.
Shape the context (policy-level, donor-level) in which the network functions to achieve its purpose.
Deliver services/ outputs to others as a ‘network offer’ and can deliver services/ resources between members as a ‘support’ offer (e.g. back-office roles) where there are economies of scale.

Articulating the extent to which the agreed values, priorities and activities of the network coincide with the existing values, priorities and activities of participating organisations and individuals.
Supporting participants to find ways to build networked learning into their daily professional lives, rather than seeing it as an add-on or as more work.
Whilst some of the motivation to participate comes from something new, participants and organisations need to be able to build on what they already know and can do already.
A network leader will plan for sustainability from the very earliest days of establishing a network.
Thinking ahead about how projects and even the network itself will survive over time and through changes of personnel and policy.
Building reach and ownership.
Creating extensive, purposeful and interdependent collaboration is both a good insurance policy and a strategy to promote ongoing development of the network.
Interdependent working and learning arrangements bring about internal pressure and mutual accountability for sticking to agreed actions, timelines and deadlines – colleagues don’t want to let each other down.
Generate Feedback loops – so members can see their impact
