Consulting
Since the equity practice began in 2020, we’ve partnered with a variety of organizations, from growing start ups, to nonprofits, foundations, school districts, and beyond. Our partnerships are focused on people and organizations who have moved beyond the beginning phases of their racial equity journey. We do not expect perfection. There is no "woke certificate." We do find we work best with those who have started the journey, and who are committed to this life-long work – even when it is hard and uncomfortable – because they are committed to change as an act of solidarity for our collective liberation.
Below are some examples of the work we’ve done - and the work we love to do - take a look, and get in touch to learn more.
Talent Practice Redesign
Beyond surface process change to explicit & implicit practice redesign.
We work with organizations to reimagine their Talent Practices to create exceptional, equitable, and inclusive work environments by:
Examining explicit (written) and implicit (unwritten) organizational practices and processes and identify patterns of oppression and domination that get in the way of equity, inclusion and belonging
Co-creating new practices and processes that better support racial equity, diversity, and inclusion
Supporting teams to implement new practices and processes in ways that both change and compliment existing structures
Identifying structures and accountability approaches that support true behavior change
Team Development
Beyond superficial relationships to authentic relationships grounded in compassion & accountability.
Our Team Development supports teams to build authentic relationships necessary for racial equity. We do this through:
Restorative experiences that help teams who have experienced harm in their DEI work to process the harm and decide together what is needed to maintain their relationship and move forward together
Team retreats and relationship building activities that support the team to build authentic relationships and build capacity for building trust across lines of racial, ethnic, and cultural differences
