LabStorms are collaborative brainstorming sessions where a group of organizations come together to help one organization wrestle with a feedback-related challenge. They operate in Chatham House rule, meaning no information will be tied back to a particular attendee, but in these blogs we share the anonymized major learnings from each session. If you would like to participate in an upcoming LabStorm (either in person or by videoconference), please drop Corey a note via [email protected]

By identifying the organizations we want to – and realistically can – influence, we are better positioned to establish a norm of “closing the loop”- and knowing how close we are to doing so.
Is this information enough to make a norm shift happen? Open Contracting Partnership extrapolated on MIT’s immersion project to create a graph history to visualize how effectively their communities are interacting.
