How WSOS Built a Repeatable Way to Measure Life After the Scholarship
Two years of alumni surveys gave Washington State Opportunity Scholarship current, credible data on what happens after graduation, and a process it can run again without starting from scratch. Here’s what 1,100+ scholar responses showed, and what we learned about measuring outcomes as response rates fall.
Strategy Built Together
As CHOOSE 180 welcomed new executive leadership, the organization paused to set a five-year direction grounded in staff, board, and youth perspectives. Kinetic West, in collaboration with Co-Rippling, designed and facilitated a co-created strategic planning process that supported leadership transition, strengthened internal alignment, and built shared ownership of the organization’s future.
From Convenings to Collective Action: Alaska’s Workforce Future
Alaska’s workforce leaders faced a fragmented landscape of promising but disconnected projects. Through statewide convenings facilitated by Kinetic West, stakeholders created a unifying plan, established the Alaska Workforce Alliance, and launched early solutions that are reshaping the state’s workforce future.
Aligning Business, Education, and Training for Lifelong Career Success
Washington Roundtable partnered with Kinetic West to better understand the journeys of students after age 26—both those who complete a credential and those who don’t. Together, we explored what it takes to help more Washingtonians complete postsecondary education and succeed in lifelong careers.
