Trust,
impact and
organizational
strengthening.

Confianza e Impacto is an initiative for organizational strengthening, impact measurement and organizational trust. It works with foundations, social organizations, donors, family offices, companies and sustainability areas that need to understand the change they produce, demonstrate it with evidence and strengthen the internal conditions that make it possible.

Our approach

Confianza e Impacto's approach combines diagnosis of organizational trust, impact measurement, theory of change, social evaluation, and training in critical thinking and lucid trust for organizations operating in complex contexts.

Impact goes beyond activities and indicators. We have ten years of experience diagnosing organizational trust. The reading identifies its fragilities and the risks that incubate silently, and makes it possible to intervene before they become crises.

The method surfaces indicators of trust conditions, coherence, healthy or pathological power dynamics, power circulation, conflict management, and organizational learning.

Impact

Understanding the change the organization generates in reality.

Coherence

Linking purpose with action.

Trust

Knowing and strengthening the conditions that make trust possible.

Lucid trust

Lucid trust is the paradigm that sustains the method. It describes a way of acting under uncertainty without falling into either blind trust or total distrust.

From there, Confianza e Impacto supports organizations to see their reality more clearly, make sounder decisions, communicate with rigor, account for their work with integrity, and sustain over time the change they promise to produce.
