As an person focused on helping leaders create more effective systems, I approach racial justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion as fundamental components of truly successful organizational practices. My commitment to these values stems from personal experiences and ongoing self-reflection about my role as a white woman in educational equity and organizational leadership spaces. I recognize that systems of organization and productivity have often been designed from dominant cultural perspectives, which can potentially reinforce inequitable structures. My workshops and coaching are developed with the understanding that: - Organizational systems must be adaptable to diverse working styles, cultural approaches to time management, and varied life circumstances - Equitable practices require intentional design and continuous learning - My role includes both educating myself and using my platform to highlight diverse perspectives In practice, this means I regularly audit my workshop content to ensure it represents diverse approaches to organization and productivity. I intentionally feature and amplify voices of color in my public resources to my email list over over 13,000 readers, ensuring my clients benefit from perspectives beyond my own. My approach to cultural competency builds on my early experiences living internationally and organizing in diverse communities. I commit to: - Ongoing education about how organizational practices differ across cultures - Creating flexible frameworks that honor different cultural approaches to time, communication, and collaboration - Adapting my workshops to respect the specific cultural contexts of each nonprofit team When working with nonprofit teams, I begin by understanding their unique community context and the populations they serve. I then tailor systems that align with both their organizational culture and the diverse communities impacted by their work. I view my development in these areas as ongoing work. As I wrote previously about my leadership journey, "I will always have a ways to go on my journey to figure out how to best put my privilege to work to destroy the systems of oppression in our society, but I aim to use them (and reject them) as often as I can in my work and personal lives." This commitment to continuous learning translates to regularly seeking feedback from diverse clients and allocating resources to make my services accessible to nonprofits led by and serving communities of color.
