sustaining through change takes stamina:
- The stamina to create
- The stamina to pivot
- The stamina to gather, even (and especially) before, during, and after difficult times
Together, we build pathways and practices that sustain people in the ongoing work of transformation.
Most organizational strategies are built for control. But change is messy, unpredictable, and human. Change is constant, always to be expected and never quite what we expect. Trying to impose order often leaves people exhausted, overwhelmed, conflicted, and disconnected.
At Space Between Strategies, we help people and groups turn toward the unexpected — recognizing that the gifts, challenges, and even hardships of change can hold seeds of possibility, and building the stamina to nurture them.
Our trainings, workshops, and strategic frameworks strengthen the skills needed to sustain, adapt, and thrive in times of change and can be adapted to suit your specific context and capacity.
Whether you are a community collective, a nonprofit, or a large institution, our approach meets you where you are. We design processes that honour your values, strengthen your ability to navigate uncertainty, and cultivate the stamina to stay present and responsive as change unfolds.
principles in action
Rather than offering a static list of core values, we share here the principles that guide our actions, interactions, and offerings. These are not ideals we hold at a distance—they are living commitments we return to, revisit, and reimagine as we move with the complexities of change.
Our principles-in-action emerge from the spaces between theory and practice, urgency and pause, planning and improvisation. They name the orientations we strive to embody in the face of uncertainty. These are the ways we hold ourselves accountable to what matters most, even—especially—when things are in flux.
- Relational Integrity – We build trust through care, reciprocity, and mutual learning.
- Turning Toward – We meet change with curiosity and soft structure, not control.
- Stamina for the Unknown – We cultivate the embodied capacity to sustain through uncertainty.
- Creative Response – We support training toward identifying, enabling, and enacting choice, even in the tightest corners.
- Resilience with Fluidity – We adapt with clarity, remaining rooted without becoming rigid.
- Vitalizing Process – We bring care, play, and accountability to the processes, policies, and procedures of future-forging.
