Becoming an anti-racist organization
Becoming an anti-racist organization
For companies and organizations wanting to get REAL about fighting racism, here’s a start:
Gather the data you already have. It’s 99% likely your company has already surveyed/focus-grouped/committeed the HECK out of the topic for years; it’s time to turn that data into action
Set goals – and make them explicit and measurable (recruitment, retention, leadership pipeline, feedback culture,…

Hello friends, it’s been a while! After my last trips to Alabama and Toronto in March 2020, I shoved my travelling-facilitator suitcase to the back of the closet, as COVID-19 swept the world. Since then, like many of you, I’ve found myself developing…

About the "Beyond White Privilege" workshop
About the “Beyond White Privilege” workshop
Since first offering a one day racial equity workshopfor white people in Vancouver, I’ve had a few inquiries from local folks asking more about who I am, what the impetus for the workshop was, why I’m offering it, and where the proceeds are going.

Focusing: Cutting through the clutter to get more done with greater ease
Focusing: Cutting through the clutter to get more done with greater ease

On “Trickle-Down Community Engagement”
I read Vu Le’s blog “Non-Profit With Balls” faithfully – he’s both hilarious and wickedly insightful about the non-profit sector. Last month I co-facilitated a half-day workshop on inclusive engagement for Simon Fraser University’s Centre for Dialogue, and wish I could go back in time to include this in the resources too – he’s spot on for both sides of the border.
In Seattle, if you’re a…
