Change Consulting
We help leaders navigate complex culture change.
Change Consulting Services
Improving your organization’s culture requires dedicated resources and expertise. We help organizations proactively improve their culture through these services.
Assessment & Strategic Planning
We help organizations understand where they are, where they want to go, and how they will get there. In partnership with senior leaders, we co-create an inclusive path forward that centers the voices of staff who have been historically excluded. Deliverables for these projects often include:
A report on the current state of culture, including barriers and opportunities
A customized and clear organization vision
A unique people & culture strategy leaders will actually use
Guidance & Advisory
We provide ongoing guidance and advisory through these temporary roles:
Fractional People & Culture Officer: As a short-term solution, I help organizations lay the foundation to set a future full-time People & Culture executive up for success. I help build systems and equip leaders with the knowledge, skills, and tools to sustain change after I leave.
Launch + Stabalize Structure: Using lessons I’ve learned from the dozens of volunteer staff-led structures I’ve advised, I help DEI Councils and Affinity Groups (e.g., ERGs, BRGs) be set up for success and maximize their impact.
Ad-Hoc Advisory: While organizations scale their people & Culture strategy, I am often a thought-partner to leaders who lack bandwidth or expertise. I can be on retanier to answer questions, facilitate conversations, and offer feedback on deliverables (e.g., communications, policies, and curriculum).
Instructional Design, Speaking + Facilitation
While one ad-hoc training will likely do very little to change your organization's culture; intentional, customized learning offerings are important tools to raise awareness and generate buy-in. We use adult learning best practices to deliver engaging in-person or virtual learning experiences that explore topics like:
Activating Inclusive Leadership
Building a Strong Foundation for Culture Change
Redesgining Systems for Equitable Outcomes
Navigating Power + Identity
Mitigating Microbehaviors
Exploring Cultural Dimensions of Diversity + Communication

Why culture change?
Society is changing at a rapid pace. If you're not proactive about culture change, the bad news is you’re behind. The good news is it’s never too late to start.
People and culture challenges are never one-size-fits-all, so their solutions shouldn’t be either. I use my decade of experience to help leaders avoid common pitfalls without having to re-invent the wheel. The most effective change initiatives are:
Bespoke, designed to meet your company's unique needs.
Owned and led by senior leaders.
Systems-changes, integrated into day-to-day operations.

Organization change can feel like roller skating for the first time.
Awkward, overwhelming, and frustrating.
And yet, just like any new skill, it gets better with the right equipment, a great coach, and lots (and lots) of practice. ➡️
