Whether you're exploring new partnerships or strengthening existing ones, we meet you where you are.

Training. Design. Strategy.

Saath Approach

Most organizations know they need to partner with others, but few know how to do it well. Our services are designed to help you across the entire partnership lifecycle, from exploring, engaging, establishing and evaluating purposeful partnerships.

Training and Capacity Development

We help teams build the mindsets, skills and tools to collaborate effectively, navigate complexity, and turn ideas into meaningful impact.

  • Build a strong grounding in systems thinking, research translation, and partnership development to support strategic execution and collective impact.

  • Learn how to map complexity, identify high-leverage points, and engage stakeholders in smarter, more adaptive collaboration.

  • Develop communication strategies, craft compelling narratives, and design practical pathways to move research into the real world.

  • Work with tested models, templates, and guides to apply systems thinking, translation pathways and collaborative strategy in daily practice.

  • Strengthen the capacity to initiate, grow, and sustain high-impact, values-driven partnerships.

Design and Facilitation

We help partners work better together, by shaping the conditions, structures and tools that support shared purpose, inclusive collaboration and lasting impact.

We offer:

  • Develop approaches that go beyond transactional relationships - bridging diverse interests, building public trust, and aligning around a common mission.

  • Design collaboration spaces, such as learning labs, listening sessions, peer learning exchanges, and co-creation forums - tailored to diverse roles and needs. These thoughtfully crafted experiences spark insight, build trust, and drive collective action.

  • Co-create theories of change, value maps, and collaboration models that align strategy, fill capacity gaps, and adapt to evolving priorities.

  • Build governance structures and accountability mechanisms that foster trust, navigate power dynamics and enable shared decision-making

  • Map partner journeys and co-develop tools that enhance how people connect, contribute, and collaborate, especially during complex transitions like policy shifts or system reform

Strategy and Roadmapping

We help organizations use systems thinking to clarify where they are, where they’re going, and how to get there -while building the structures and tools that make collaboration effective, measurable and sustainable.

We offer:

  • Use systems mapping and ecosystem analysis to reveal patterns and identify opportunities. Co-create roadmaps that align vision, values, and operations - rooted in real-world complexity.

  • Facilitate processes that clarify focus, and value proposition. Support multi-stakeholder planning to build shared priorities and chart actionable paths forward.

  • Build relevant metrics, templates, and feedback loops that help organizations understand what’s working, strengthen partnership quality, and learn in real time.

  • Integrate practical tools and practices into daily operations to make collaboration easier, more consistent and more effective, across teams and organizations.

  • Design the foundational structures that support partnership health - from onboarding and knowledge sharing to decision-making and governance.
