Our Approach

Our goal is to take things off your plate while also leaving you with new skills and resources to do your work more effectively in the future. We’re guided by the following core principles:

We focus on people: We start with getting to know your organization and team, and we consider how the work will affect the various people involved in the project (e.g., your team members, candidates, board members, partners, etc.). We build systems and practices with a commitment to recognizing and combating bias, with an explicit focus on racial, gender identity, ability, and income equity.

We are collaborative and tailored: We begin each engagement with facilitated conversations with clients to understand the project and design an approach that matches your needs. We customize our engagements to align with each client’s values, goals, and organizational culture.

We are planful and evidence-based: We stay up-to-date on best practices and bring tested tools, resources, and our personal experience to each client. We place equal emphasis on thoughtful planning and careful execution.
