She also co-creates commons based collective impact initaitives and platforms. Engaged in the commons and social innovation movements, Samantha is currently writing a book - Going Horizontal – Creating a Non-hierarchical Organization, One Practice at a Time (to be released in October 2018 with Berrett-Koehler Publishers). Samantha believes that organizations can be a microcosm of the world we want to live in."
