Better Decisions, Together.

Community-Rooted Facilitation & Collaborative Strategy

We strengthen community-centered outcomes by cultivating the calm, clarity, and confidence leaders need to collaborate across systems.

What’s Next Now partners with public agencies, nonprofit organizations, and cross-sector leaders to turn shared vision into collective, sustainable action.

Where Community Wisdom Shapes Action

Complex challenges require more than quick solutions. They require trust, reflection, and the courage to collaborate across difference.

At What’s Next Now, we believe social transformation moves at the pace of relationships. Our work strengthens the relational and organizational capacity needed for leaders and communities to think clearly, listen deeply, and act wisely — together.

Through artful facilitation and proven collaborative methods, we help partners move from urgency and fragmentation toward clarity and community-rooted impact.

WHAT WE DO

Cultivating Calm, Clarity & Confidence

We design and facilitate processes that strengthen both decisions and relationships.

Our services include:

  • Multi-stakeholder facilitation and participatory decision-making

  • Strategy development and collective action planning

  • Leadership development for cross-sector collaboration

  • Custom retreats, workshops, and trainings

  • Reflection and co-learning practices that embed sustainable change

Whether working with city agencies, nonprofit coalitions, or cross-sector teams, we create environments where people can show up authentically, build trust, and co-design decisions grounded in community wisdom.

Relational. Community-Rooted. Sustainable.

Relational

We build the trust and relational capacity that collaboration requires — calming nervous systems, strengthening connection, and supporting groups in relating and repairing in service of their shared goals.

HOW WE WORK

Sustainable Outcomes

We embed reflection, learning, and repeatable collaborative practices that allow organizations to continue acting with clarity and collective confidence long after the gathering ends.

Community-Rooted

We ensure decisions are co-designed with the diversity of voices across a system. Community wisdom shapes both the process and the outcomes.

WHO WE SERVE

Cross-Sector Leaders Committed to Collective Impact

We partner with public agencies, community-based organizations, nonprofit leaders, and cross-sector teams who value collaboration, equity, and sustainable, community-centered outcomes.

While our work is rooted in New York and the surrounding region, our focus is always the same: strengthening the calm, clarity, and confidence leaders need to work together across systems.
