We need to adopt a #winning mindset, concentrate on what we ALL share in common & debate productively what we disagree on. Compromise where we need to. Prioritise winning power above ALL - that is what the Right do. When we WIN power, we can guide the ship through debate & effective representation!

We need to stop infighting and coalesce - shocking concept I know.

The iron triangle of impact measurement Balancing credible estimates, comprehensive evaluation, and clear communication make social impact difficult to measure

All over the world, charities, governments and others seeking to make the world a better place are asked a simple question: What impact is your work having?

A new Nesta blog explores why that question is so difficult to answer - and what we can do about it ‡️
