Consulting


Organizations face competing demands internally and
externally in constantly changing ecosystems.
I help them prioritize holistically, create collaborative strategies and plans across teams, and align actions with values. I also design and manage programs and partnerships that seek to transform individuals and systems.
My Consulting Approach
​
-
Collaboratively Develop and Implement Plans / Strategies – we need multiple vantage points and knowledge sets to inform, design and operationalize the choices we make and how we work. As we know: If we want to go far, we must do it together.
-
Think Big, Design (through) Small – organizations have ambitious visions to support and mobilize healthy communities, change systems and build leadership. By thinking through the details and collectively bringing internal teams and systems together, important gains can be made with more flow and less gaps or friction.
-
Bring Creativity, Joy and Laughter while addressing Serious Challenges – the realities we are facing as institutions, individuals, communities and families are unprecedented. During times of stress and uncertainty, it’s all the more important to remember that we need to experience the fullness of being human for the sake of our health, our teams and our strategies.
Examples of projects include:
​
-
Design and facilitate strategy retreats and strategies focused on learning and sharing across stakeholders and workstreams, and diagnosing areas for greater alignment.
Stop AAPI Hate & Stop the Hate CA
