ShareCraft

Share what works.

ShareCraft makes it easy to share best practices in community services.
Create an interactive Practice Field Guide for your team or partners.
Collaborate with a managed Community of Practice.

The challenge

You already know your practice works. Passing it on is the hard part.

The practice is good. The documentation isn’t. That’s a problem for your team as well as your funders.

Good practice leaves when good people do

When a senior practitioner leaves, years of experience leave with them. New staff start from scratch.

Scattered knowledge

Old PDFs no one reads, email threads, supervision notes, informal chats. The knowledge exists, but no one can find it reliably.

No consistency across diverse teams

Different staff deliver the practice in different ways, so quality, outcomes and risks vary, especially for edge cases.

Nobody can find what already works

Someone, somewhere, has already solved this problem. Without a documented practice to point to, every team starts from a blank page.

The same question, answered from scratch every time

A new starter, a curious partner, a practitioner learning a method — each one asks a question that has already been answered, just not anywhere they can find it.

Reporting and admin

It's hard to show funders or Executives how results were achieved or give them confidence the program can be delivered consistently.

Turn your know-how into everyone’s practice.

ShareCraft captures how your team works, keeps it current, and gets it into everyone’s hands, without the time documentation usually takes. We do the heavy lifting with you.

The operations manual your team will actually open
Field Guide

The operations manual your team will actually open

An interactive handbook, organised into Foundations, Practice, Quality and Operations. Every page links to the resources behind it, filters to a person's role, allows for staff discussion, and exports to PDF when they need it on paper.

What to do when for each role
Tasks

What to do when for each role

Walk the client journey stage by stage. Each task connects to the outcome it drives, so the work stays purposeful and quality stays consistent across the team.

Capture the nuance that isn't in any manual
Case Book

Capture the nuance that isn't in any manual

Senior practitioners log real cases and edge situations against the relevant phase. New workers learn from peers, see how different client needs are handled, and stop reinventing the wheel. A rich, ever-expanding collection of implicit and applied knowledge.

Practice knowledge, there when your team needs it

Every part of the service model, connected, current and accessible

See the whole program logic

Service model and program logic laid out clearly, so anyone can grasp how the program works at a glance, from need to service to outcomes.

One source of truth, always current

Everything linked in one place and secure, kept current as your practice evolves. Get alignment across all roles including frontline, executives, finance, HR, quality and even strategic partners.

Drill into step-by-step how-tos

Detailed, practical guidance for every task, usable and printable as checklists and quick-reference cards, video learning and linked Cases.

Capture case learnings in Case Book

Practitioners record nuanced cases and edge situations, building shared judgement across the whole team.

Know exactly what your role is

Staff filter tasks by their role and program stage and see only what is relevant to them. You can even capture Participant tasks & expectations.

Link every task to an outcome

See how the work connects to your outcomes, so practice stays purposeful and easy to evidence for funders.
