We help commercial companies leverage social outcomes and social businesses achieve commercial outcomes.

The connectives are social entrepreneurs – investing time, money and intellectual capital to develop partnerships and projects which deliver break through sustainable solutions with social, commercial and environmental impact.

As stated in Sustain September 2006...
“In order for sustainability to be delivered at a strategic level, a new type of person needs to be recruited – the ‘Connectives’. These are a new generation of counter intuitive thinkers, capable of seeing the bigger picture, connecting workflows and acting as change agents of sustainability.”

We are thinking practitioners - we have been ‘in the field’ and we have a proven track record of positive impact in consulting - in ways that really add value to the work of others.

We believe that it is increasingly important that our clients can effectively tell their stories; that they can let the world know the difference they are making for their own clients.  The Connectives offers a range of social impact measurement tools and processes.

We work with our clients to consult the communities they serve, gaining valuable insights into their customers’ perceptions, allowing them to learn from their customers and constantly improve their services.

We also support our clients to quantify the financial value of the social impact they create; by identifying the savings and added value they generate we can begin to find the true worth of the time, effort and money invested by our clients.

This type of social impact measurement supports their corporate social responsibility obligations, it aids their public benefit reporting and it gives them a tangible way of differentiating themselves from their competitors.
