Our Work Principles
We Believe in a Learning Stance
We engage in a learning stance both internally and externally as a guide. We actively listen to discover what is needed within an organization and remain open to new ideas or thought patterns that would not have been previously been considered. This curiosity provides space for adaptability within a given program based on client culture, dynamics, and desired outcomes.

- Active Listening
- Openness
- Curiosity
- Adaptability
We Believe in the Whole Person
Organizations thrive when individuals feel safe to bring their whole selves to what they do. Safety is created by addressing individual fears and limitations, seeing vulnerability as a strength, and responding to the other with empathy. These embodied practices result in a team that trusts each other to thrive personally and professionally.

We Believe in a Shared Intelligence
We believe you know your organization better than we do. We bring our expertise along with your intimate organizational knowledge to guide your team. Together, we uncover barriers to growth and create a program based on your identified needs in order to have sustainable ongoing growth.

We Believe in a Inclusive Culture
We believe diverse teams produce the best results and need an inclusive environment to thrive. Cultivating an inclusive environment requires individuals to reflect, suspend judgement of others, be open to change by seeking feedback around blind spots and celebrating differences. It allows others to come forward in their strengths to develop the whole organization and the whole person.
This Looks like
- Openness to Change
- Suspending Judgement
- Seeking Feedback
- Celebrating Differences
