Build Community
Communities are transformed when they can take their historical, cultural and natural assets, and catalyze them toward more quality living. In small rural communities and more urban neighborhood settings, CCG has facilitated community visioning, brokered partnerships and designed revitalization efforts.

A client speaks:
The Clay Christensen Group has brought a new approach to how we interact with the public in the development of our projects. The net result is a better informed public and a design team which is more acutely sensitive to the public face of the project. – Joe Schinstock, Vice President MMM Design Group.

Engage People
Transformation begins in the minds and hearts of individuals who feel informed, involved and counted. CCG has facilitated dozens of sessions at the community, stakeholder and team level--- all driving toward buy-in and action.

A client speaks:
The Clay Christensen Group brings an intelligent energy and direction to difficult issues. Their practice of involvement is outstanding in any group meeting In my 32 years of public involvement, this firm is the best I have worked with. – Gary O’Connell, Executive Director, Albemarle Service Authority

Develop Leaders
True transformation rests on the inspiration, courage and tenacity of leaders to make things happen. Leadership is not knowing the answers but knowing how to access talent and recourses inside and out of the organization. It’s being willing to reinvent the business model—expanding or contracting to fit current conditions. Its creating a culture of team that will commit to the long term wins while battling the short term challenges.
