2020-2022 StrategyDownload as PDF (542KB)Purpose and VisionIn February we elected the ICW Advisory Council for the very first time. The Council now represent all parts of our membership - executive and individual. The first task was to review our Purpose and Vision and involve the newly elected members in these discussions. It also felt a good time, as we approach the 30th Anniversary of the ICW, to take stock of the work that we have done and to review our strategy for the future. We are delighted to launch today the final approved Vision and Purpose. |
Whilst these are uncertain times, we know that collaborative working can only become more important as we build new ways of working. Our members have demonstrated during the last few challenging months, that the processes they have already put in place to support collaborative working have proved to be incredibly valuable and deliver better outcomes. From years of experience we know that collaborative working improves business relationships and we have taken this opportunity to extend our reach to promote collaboration and collaborative working more widely across the public sector and society. | In refocussing our Purpose and Vision we have set ourselves ambitious strategic priorities with corresponding targets and actions which will be measured over the next 2 years. We know that we can do so much more with the continued support and engagement of our membership. So we are asking you to support these new activities and engage with us so that we can continue to grow and strengthen the ICW and in turn, deliver more value for you. | We have also included our current list of Special Interest Groups, indicating how their work feeds into the Executive team and the Advisory Council to shape our thinking and activities. These are groups which work best with engagement from members across a wide range of sectors and we hope you will take the opportunity to get involved in one of these groups. Through these groups we can continue to share and learn from our community of practitioners in collaborative working. |

We look forward to the next 30 years of collaborative working.
To be the home of collaboration where good practice is shared and supported with research, experience and training, building a global community which recognises the development of skills and knowledge of collaborative working practices. Through our community we will enhance the professional relationships of business, public sector and wider society to produce greater value in the outcomes for all.
