Those who have partnered with us at MXM Research Group know that Outcome Harvesting plays a big role in our evaluation practice. Well, I'm excited to share... The updated Guide to Outcome Harvesting + Attitude Change is ready for download! Over the past year, Michelle Garred, PhD has stewarded this major update, drawing from the wisdom and camaraderie of an incredible advisory team Dr. Barbara Klugman Conny Hoitink jeph mathias Malaka Refai Jael Rosa Dharamsingh Lydia Powell, and yours truly, plus editor Stephanie Carey. Bringing a lens of attitude change into Outcome Harvesting can allow us to explore the dynamic relationship between behaviors and attitudes in a process of social change. The Guide unpacks when, why, and how we bring attitude change considerations into Outcome Harvesting, while fully honoring the behavior-focused principles of that approach. It's written for practitioners with experience using Outcome Harvesting. 👏 Download the Guide: https://lnkd.in/gFrcQU7d 👏More about this update in a blog post: https://lnkd.in/eXUEyBkD 👏Other related resources, see comments below.
