CHALLENGE
Girl Scouts wanted to create more opportunities for girls who may not traditionally have access to troop-based programs and experiences. As communities faced increasing social and economic challenges, leadership recognized the need to better understand how evolving needs were impacting participation, engagement, and accessibility.
The organization also wanted a more collaborative way to bring stakeholders together, gather ideas from across teams, and identify practical solutions that could help strengthen future programs and community impact efforts.
SOLUTION
Fratzke partnered with Girl Scouts to facilitate a guided ideation and strategy workshop focused on strengthening the organization’s All Girl Initiative. The engagement included strategic pre-planning sessions, collaborative workshop facilitation, and an after-action review designed to help leadership prioritize ideas and identify next steps.
The engagement focused on helping the organization better understand barriers impacting underserved communities while developing actionable ideas to improve accessibility, engagement, and long-term program effectiveness.
Key areas of focus included:
- Facilitating a guided ideation and strategic planning workshop
- Identifying barriers impacting community engagement and participation
- Aligning stakeholders around shared organizational priorities
- Generating actionable ideas and strategic recommendations

RESULTS
Our partnership gave Girl Scouts a more collaborative and strategic framework for supporting the All Girl Initiative and identifying opportunities to improve accessibility, engagement, and community impact.
Through the workshop process, leadership gained clearer visibility into engagement challenges, emerging opportunities, and areas where additional support could strengthen long-term program effectiveness. Our strategy session also helped align stakeholders around shared priorities while generating practical ideas and actionable next steps for future planning, creating a strong foundation for future innovation, collaboration, and community impact.
