Visioning and Strategy Planning
We collaborate with organizations to refine their vision, (re)define their values, and clarify their desired outcomes. Our visioning sessions provide teams with a roadmap for the future, bringing clarity and alignment to the organization’s direction. These sessions serve as the cornerstone for a comprehensive strategic planning process, ensuring your team is equipped to move forward with purpose and intention.
For many, this also includes establishing a clear vision for diversity, equity, and inclusion. Together, we tackle critical questions: What does it mean to build a truly liberatory organization? Are our policies equitable, or do they advantage some while leaving others behind? How inclusive are we now—and how can we improve? How can DEI become an integral part of our organizational DNA?

Team Culture & Institutional Deep Dive
Our deep dive assesses the policies, practices, and procedures that shape your organization using a mixed-methods approach. This typically includes creating and disseminating quantitative surveys, alongside facilitating one-on-one interviews and/or focus groups. For some clients, the process extends to a thorough review of HR practices, employee handbooks, promotion policies, team-building routines, and other key elements that influence overall culture. The goal is to uncover institutional practices that may unintentionally hinder progress toward the company you aspire to be.
Key Components of the Deep Dive:
-
Quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews/focus groups
-
Review of HR practices, employee handbooks, and promotion policies
Evaluation of team-building routines and cultural influences
At the end of this process, we provide a clear analysis of your organization’s current state, along with actionable recommendations, measurable goals, and practical metrics to ensure sustainable progress. This isn’t just about identifying challenges—it’s about equipping your team with the insights and tools to build an inclusive and thriving workplace.
