More information
It’s counterintuitive, but many projects fail during the growth stage. Problems can arise when new stakeholders aren’t integrated effectively, when expectations outpace capacity, or when expansion moves beyond the initiative’s original public mission. In this session, we will talk about what it takes to grow responsibly while protecting the integrity of public-sector initiatives.
