"Because people don’t fail their communities,
their communities
fail 
them."

Andrea DelZotto

WHAT, WHY & HOW

“There’s a tendency to say, if I change the way you think, you’ll change the way you behave. But it’s not actually true. If you want to change someone’s behaviour, change the context around them and they'll respond to that context.”
                                                                                                                  
-  Rich Lesser - BCG  

WHAT

We are a collaborative research, innovation and investment team, focused on the intersection of people and place.

WHY

We believe there’s new criteria defining successful communities: Things such as belonging, opportunity, engagement, resilience, and  physical & mental health.

HOW

We explore the physical environment & its social impact. Individual problems are societal problems. We take an “outside-in” approach to fixing them.

In her final management role as EVP, Community Development at Tridel, Andrea focused on the strategic advancement of Tridel’s most valuable asset; its brand and reputation. Andrea continues to serve on the Tridel Group of Companies Board of Directors, a role and responsibility which she finds to be ultimately fulfilling, as it brings the opportunity to implement strong governance and navigate the transition of a legacy business into the complexities of a new economy.
