Orchestrating Connection: How to Build Purposeful Community in a Tribal World

We are more “connected” than ever—yet paradoxically lonelier and more isolated. The need for meaningful connection has never been more profound. Orchestrating Connection: How to Build Purposeful Community in a Tribal World is a call to action for anyone concerned about this fragmentation, offering a compelling vision of how to weave genuine relationships that foster belonging, collaboration, and collective impact. The future belongs not to accidental collections of neighbors or aggrieved online groups, but to communities built with intention, guiding principles, and a give-and-give attitude.

Orchestrating Connection doesn’t just provide a new way to think about our social world—it’s a how-to blueprint for creating the DNA to build it. Weaving together the key principles of diversity, vulnerability, curiosity, generosity, and gratitude, the authors describe how consistent rituals, explicitly communicated values and expectations, and a carefully crafted culture help solidify each community’s collective identity.

But the work of building your community—whether growing your own network or shaping a global movement—begins with personal clarity. You can’t effectively participate in or lead a community without first understanding your own purpose. The journey thus begins at the individual level: identifying what you stand for, what you truly need, and how you can leverage that deep understanding to draw others into conversation with you.

Ultimately, this book is an invitation to redefine community. Whether you’re an activist aiming to mobilize a grassroots initiative, an executive reshaping a company’s culture, or an individual seeking personal transformation, this book provides a roadmap for forging intentional, empathic communities.

Orchestrating Connection is therefore poised to spark a larger movement—one that can inspire and empower us to replace isolation with purpose and genuine belonging.

“In team sports, you may excel as an individual, but you only win as a tight knit group. That group, in essence, is a community because what you bring to the game, and how you act off the court, all informs that subtle dynamic of what makes a group champions. Orchestrating Connection systematically creates the rituals for self-work to develop self-worth, and for how we master our network to create teams that champion us as we champion them.”-Candace Parker, former WNBA forward, Sports Anchor, and Author

“Leadership in philanthropy is fundamentally about gathering and empowering others to help. This is whatOrchestrating Connection is about: the crucial insight that surrounding yourself with the "right" people starts with you and resonates outward based on integrity and your principles, like the concentric rings around a pebble thrown into a pond.

David Homan's work on the board of the Arthur Miller Foundation (AMF) has given us invaluable insights into how giving can be contagious, given the right strategies. I endorse the benefits of this book's guidance because I have seen them in action.”-Rebecca Miller, Filmmaker, Activist, and Philanthropist
