Tools
One of the principles of the Wise Economy Workshop approach is the realization that our world and our communities are complicated and made up of interconnecting parts — and that our old ways of dealing with our issues as though they were separate things doesn’t work anymore. Instead of making decisions based on our guts, or the “play nice” rules we learned in kindergarden, we at the Wise Economy Workshop are dedicated to helping you access the best ideas from across planning, economic development, business management, organizational studies and decision-making theory to help you grow your own Wise Economy.
To do that, Wise Economy Workshop is in the process of developing a collection of easy-to-use tools for addressing your community’s needs, whether those needs are about planning, community-building, getting people meaningfully engaged or fully understanding your options. Some of them are being created by us, others come from our partner network. Stay tuned.
Here’s a few to get started:

A cornucopia of Online Public Engagement and a Wise Economy white paper to help you start to figure out you options.
