Flywheels Partnership Proposal

Thunder Bay & District Injured Workers Support Group
(Serving injured workers for 40+ years)

Date: April 1, 2026
Phase 1: Thunder Bay (12 weeks) → Phase 2: Ontario-wide (ONIWG) → Phase 3: Canada-wide
Cost: $0 (fully funded by 3mpwrApp)

🎯 Executive Summary

Following the March 31st presentation at TBDIWSG, we propose an ongoing partnership to deploy the "3 Flywheels of Change" framework - starting in Thunder Bay, expanding to Ontario-wide (via ONIWG), then scaling Canada-wide.

The Opportunity

Your audience asked three breakthrough questions that revealed the path forward:

  1. Can flywheels be located at high-volume intake points? → YES - TBDIWSG (40+ years serving workers) is perfect
  2. Can we jumpstart flywheels with historical data? → YES - 50,000+ public tribunal decisions
  3. Can flywheels be standalone for specific locations? → YES - Thunder Bay → Ontario → Canada

The Expansion Strategy

Phase 1: Thunder Bay proof-of-concept (12 weeks)
Phase 2: Ontario Network of Injured Workers Groups (ONIWG) - province-wide deployment
Phase 3: Every province via their injured worker networks - Canada-wide coverage

📊 What You Get

🔄 The 3 Flywheels Framework

Flywheel #1: Evidence Flywheel

Problem: Workers spend 40+ hours researching appeals, often making the same mistakes others made.

Solution: Share wins → Copy strategies → More wins → Better strategies

For TBDIWSG: Your clients search "fibromyalgia WSIB appeal" → see 73 successful cases → copy proven strategies → win faster

Flywheel #2: Collective Action Flywheel

Problem: 156 workers fighting the same denial reason, zero coordination.

Solution: Detect patterns → Launch campaigns → Joint submissions → Policy change

For TBDIWSG: System detects "78% of Thunder Bay construction workers denied for same reason" → Campaign auto-suggested → 62 join → Joint submission to WSIB → Media coverage → Policy change

Flywheel #3: Knowledge Network Flywheel

Problem: Every new worker starts from zero, reinventing the wheel.

Solution: Templates + AI recommendations + peer mentors = 39 hours saved

For TBDIWSG: User #1 spent 40 hours researching. User #500 gets instant template library + mentor match → 1 hour to results.
