The PAE Attention Frameworktm 

PEOPLE

People have personal values, beliefs, and experiences which influence how they approach (or partake in) engagement. People can influence outcomes and perceptions of success.

The PAE Attention Framework presentation

Approach

How engagement is “tackled” (e.g., the use of training and facilitation strategies) is influenced by people. The approach, good or bad, influences outcomes as well as people’s perceptions of success.

Approach

Environment

Environment

The pressures from leaders, funders, and constituents, as well as financial and time constraints, can influence perception of engagement importance and resources dedicated.

Pressure from leaders, constituents, and funders as well as financial/time restraints will influence our perception of how important engagement is, the time and resources we devote to the process, and our own personal buy-in.

We need to PAE attention to how these factors
influence each other and how they impact our outcomes

OUR
STORY

Testimonials

Having known Erin McGaffigan for close to 10 years, I have experienced her strengths and base of knowledge in the area of disabled and elder populations in need of long term services and supports. Erin is a well-informed professional who takes the time to thoroughly research and understand issues and to expertly inform her clients. My work with her was particularly focused on self-direction models and I personally learned a great deal from discussing such models with Erin. I enthusiastically recommend Collective Insight.
