What We Offer
We focus on three areas of DEI work in order to help organizations live into their full potential:
Strategy
Ensuring each organization’s overall strategy is rooted in its DEI commitments.
DEI values and practices are too often relegated to the margins. We help organizations move DEI to the center, becoming the orientation from which strategy, vision, and purpose radiate.
DEI Audit
DEI Roadmap Creation
Accountability Protocols
Culturally Inclusive Hirings Practices
Demographic Surveys
We work with organizations to design inclusive processes for strategic decisions, projects, processes, and transitions, and support all areas of organizational development, including board diversification, pay equity, recruitment and retention, performance review processes, and more.
We can help make the difference between a process that replicates the discrimination found in society and one that leads to wide co-ownership and support amongst diverse stakeholders.
Developmental
Understanding and living into DEI values in our lives, workplaces, and society.
We work with staff, board members, and partners to develop the mindsets, skills, and knowledge they need to operate with critical consciousness and intercultural competence.
Given that an individual’s journey is never linear, we can provide development and support in (not an exhaustive list):
Personal change and consciousness development
Interpersonal change
Microaggressions
Exploration of historic and systemic realities and trauma
Intersectionality
Unconscious bias
Organizational psychology and system change
Power and Privilege
Decentering Dominant Culture
Unlearning White Supremacy
Managing Across Lines of Difference
Learning How to Interrupt Oppressive Moments
Building Cultures of Belonging
Moving from Saviorism to Solidarity
Allyship and Co-Conspiracy
We do this over a meaningful time frame to support change at the personal, organizational, and ecosystem levels.
Ongoing Engagement
We support clients to continuously grow in their DEI sophistication and integration.
Centering DEI is an ongoing process that must be constantly revisited and embedded in the workings of an organization. As such, we provide our services to leaders over a period of up to a year in order to remain responsive to needs that arise. This includes:
Socializing DEI-related policies and principles
Following up on change management processes
Providing ongoing coaching
Supporting new initiatives or business needs from a DEI lens
