Our Services
We partner with philanthropists, impact investors, and social enterprises to create a society where all can benefit from the prosperity we collectively produce.
We support leaders and organizations through customized approaches to strategic planning, initiative development, and convening design.
We transform the world through ideas that push the boundaries of what is possible.
Strategic Planning
Imagine if we could create a blueprint for societal transformation. That's what strategic planning—at its best—can do. Building on nearly two decades of experience, we craft comprehensive strategies that align transformative visions with actionable goals.
Our approach draws upon deep subject matter expertise in racial justice, economic opportunity, community development, and healthy democratic practices to identify innovative strategies that address the scope and scale of our complex societal challenges.
We're not here to tinker at the edges. We're here to draft the blueprints of a world where opportunity is not a lottery but a birthright. We invite clients and projects that reflect our shared purpose.
Initiative Development
Initiative development is where lofty ideals meet brass tacks—the nitty-gritty of turning "what ifs" into "what is." From concept to execution, we support you in bridging the chasm between dreaming and doing.
Our approach combines innovative strategic thinking with practical project management, ensuring your programs are well-designed, efficiently run, and focused on achieving meaningful outcomes.
We're not just strategists; we're also practitioners. When needed, we roll up our sleeves and step in as fractional executives because, in the realm of social impact, sometimes you need to be the change you want to see.
Convening Design
When we design convenings, we start with a radical question: What is the purpose of this gathering? Not the topic, not the agenda, but the true purpose. Are we here to challenge assumptions? To forge unlikely alliances? To heal community wounds? Once we know the purpose, every decision—from who's invited to how the space is arranged—flows from there.
Our approach to convening design is about unleashing the power of human connection in service of social change. We pay attention to the hidden language of gatherings: the circular seating arrangement that subtly communicates equality, the shared meal that breaks down hierarchies, and the opening ritual that sets the tone for vulnerability and authenticity.
Whether virtual or in-person, we ensure your meetings and events are engaging, inclusive, and result in both strengthened partnerships and tangible progress toward your goals.
