Innovating in the Public Interest: Winning Early

DateApril 9, 2025, 2:00 PM ET
Duration60-minutes

Great projects begin with early wins. We will talk about the importance of driving for early wins – and of using them to build understanding of how collaborators are each evaluated and rewarded for successes.  Early successes can become the foundation for longer-term initiatives.

  • Design Early Wins – Learn how to structure quick, targeted successes that build trust, demonstrate impact, and reinforce public-sector credibility.

  • Navigate Cross-Sector Dynamics – Understand how different organizations measure success and leverage early achievements to strengthen long-term collaboration.

  • Overcome Skepticism – Explore strategies to gain buy-in from internal and external stakeholders by demonstrating clear public value.
