HOW WE HELP 

4_edited.png

We cannot throw a 2-hour training at a structural or systemic problem and expect it to be solved. We believe in using a layered approach—working with individuals, organizations, communities, and systems to create lasting equitable transformations that lead to a more just and inclusive world.

 

Here are the pathways we can take to get you there:

ORG

01

Organizations that provide a place for people to thrive are committed to working both in service of their mission and in service of their people. These organizations foster healthy connections, safety, dignity, respect and purpose. They prioritize people-centered design and promote a culture of learning. We can help you build a thriving organization by offering you: ​ - Diversity, Equity, Inclusion+ (DEI+) consulting and advisement ​ - Visioning retreats where you’ll clarify your company culture and values with a focus on DEI+ ​ - Employee resource or affinity groups supported by our Seeding Affinity Groups™️ model ​ - Employee engagement listening sessions, expertly facilitated with an emphasis on somatics and repairing harm ​ - Kitchen Table Chats, our unique process for hosting dynamic dialogue and courageous conversions ​ -Support addressing workplace harms and well-being using a Transformative Justice & Restorative Justice approach.

THRIVING TEAMS

Teams are places that foster collaboration towards a shared vision and set of goals. Most employees’ workplace well-being is based on the experience they have on their localized team and their direct supervisor. We provide support around team vision, belonging, and integration through services like: ​ Expertly-led building retreats ​ Co-creative team norms, values and cohesion using the Team Performance Model ​ Employee engagement sessions to facilitate and elevate worker voices ​ H.I.V.E.

IT STARTS WHEN YOU DECIDE YOU WANT TO DO THINGS DIFFERNTLY

We know that there’s a lot of information out there about how to build an inclusive organization. We don’t think you need to learn more jargon or implement another DIY strategy—we think you need to lead.

When you work with Wilson and Associates, you don’t need to hold our team’s hand. We have expert knowledge in the field and will cut right to our work so that you can do yours. We have seen it all before and can make quick and accurate assessments about your organization’s strengths, needs and next steps.

"As the first Chief Equity Officer for the lagest and most diverse planning department in the country, collaborating with Chrystal on the first ever listening session was an eye opener for me and for my department. She made DEI very accessible and acceptable by all of us.

- Faisal Roble,  City of Los Angeles Planning Department, CEO of Racial Justice and Equity 

WHAT WE OFFER


Companies on a mission to make the world a better place have to care twice as much about their internal culture to ensure their actions are aligned with their values. When you do that, you create conditions for people to thrive. In exchange, they stay longer, collaborate better, and contribute their innovative ideas.

There are many ways to build that kind of inclusive, values-aligned organization. Here’s how we can help:

Colleagues

Enjoyable, inclusive, and results-focused gatherings require expert facilitation. Whether you’re planning a meeting, conference, retreat, or planning process, Wilson and Associates has been in the business of facilitation for 15 years and we’d love to help. Our P.O.P.P. Design Framework helps us co-design and deliver unforgettable engagements—ones where groups do their best thinking, conversations and activities are well-managed, and joy is infused intentionally. That’s why people often leave our group sessions more energized than how they arrived.

YOUR NEXT STEPS

Using our Recipe for Transformation™️, we help you disrupt inequity by facilitating courageous conversations, making commitments to change, and doing the work to address and repair harm. 

Organizations are large ecosystems—they often need recalibrating in order to create conditions where people continue to thrive. As experts in Transformational Consulting, we help you run an organization that honors people in their full humanity, creating a culture that prioritizes belonging and connection.

We believe that leadership is a characteristic, not a title, and that everyone deserves access to expert support and resources to help build that leadership muscle. We want to help you (and your team members) elevate your voice, lead with dignity, and sustain your efforts to create a values-aligned, irresistible workplace at your organization.
