For over six decades, the Johnson Foundation has gathered leaders from all walks of life for meaningful, robust, and civil discussions on important issues. Our unique convening model ensures that our conferences inspire solutions with sustained impact. We engage at each stage in this process, steadily advancing the issue along the value chain toward results.

A group is guided on an exploration of their initial thoughts and concerns on an issue.
From those concerns, a pattern of problems is identified, compiled, and agreed upon.
Stakeholders must identify and agree on the root cause of the problems that persist.
Stakeholders agree on where to focus efforts and narrow down viable solutions.
A collective action plan is created with accountable and measurable goals.
The action plan is implemented, and progress is closely tracked.
Stakeholders track progress toward desired outcomes and institutionalize success.
