Diana Smith, Chief Principal Consultant

Collaboration is the mechanism for Regional Resilience.

As we synchronize stakeholders, strengthen infrastructure, and embed equity into the systems that shape our workforce, economies and communities.

ProManna Group turns complexity into clarity and ensures social impact flows back to the people it’s meant to serve.


Ecosystem Led Growth

Ecosystem Building & Collaborative Growth

ProManna Group operates from the belief that no single organization can thrive in isolation and . Real progress happens when we understand how systems, stakeholders, and strategies connect — and design the conditions for those connections to flourish.

Fostering collaboration across industries, institutions, and communities so that collective capacity grows alongside individual success.

Our work is guided by an ecosystem-led growth approach — strengthening networks instead of silos, building trust between sectors, and creating pathways where collaboration becomes a renewable resource.

We don’t just convene partners; we help them see the whole system, identify leverage points, and move from coordination to co-creation. The result is momentum that lasts — a stronger economy, and a stronger community.


“We help organizations see the whole ecosystem — transforming fragmented efforts into coordinated growth that serves both business and community.”

Process Facilitation on Collaboration

We are facilitating how collaboration happens — helping organizations & Businesses alike:

  • Recognize barriers and enablers of collaboration
  • Practice collaborative behaviors (listening, co-design, consensus-building)
  • Develop shared agreements, decision frameworks, or alignment structures
  • Strengthen their collective capacity to work across silos, or rid silos once and for all.

Are You Ready, is your Organization Ready for Transformative Work?


How it works

1

Connect

This is where the partnership begins.

Who you are, what problem or opportunity you’re tackling, and what outcomes you’re seeking.

Outcome: Initial alignment + shared understanding of needs, barriers, and possibilities.

2

Consult

Here, we move from connection to clarity.

ProManna Group acts as a strategic partner and consultant.

Outcome: A structured plan and facilitation roadmap for partnership and collective work.

3

Collaborate

Now, we engage in the real work together.

  • ProManna leads or co-facilitates working sessions, coalition tables, or strategic initiatives.
  • We align multiple partners toward a shared agenda, define responsibilities, and establish feedback loops.

Outcome: Shared ownership, accountability, and early wins across organizations.

4

Connectivity

This phase extends collaboration into the larger ecosystem.

  • We help integrate your work with broader networks — public, private, academic, and community.
  • Connectivity ensures your partnerships are supported, visible, and aligned with the region’s collective progress.

Outcome: Shared Agendas, active ecosystem integration + visible collaboration pathways.

5

Capacity Restoration

Capacity → “Build the muscle that sustains collaboration”

Capacity is the condition where collaboration becomes sustainable — because the structure, skill, and shared discipline are finally in place.

Outcome: Increased organizational resilience and ecosystem capacity to act on data, insight, and collaboration.
