SERVICES

We engage in participatory systems practice, working with diverse system stakeholders including those at the bottom of a social hierarchy. We conduct systems research and chart a way forward using embodied, relational, spiritual, lived experiential, energetic, intuitive, aesthetic, mainstream, community, and other knowledge.

We conduct educational discovery to uncover educational aspirations, hopes, or needs. We identify if an educational dynamic is related to knowledge, skills, non-cognitive factors, or environment. We also co-design educational experiences to address various situations or help a group reach their vision. We then offer to facilitate or co-facilitate those experiences.

We mix systems approaches with design approaches. We use design to design what an intervention in a system can look like, how it will function. We then test and measure how the system responds to the changes we have designed in the system. We listen, learn, and adapt.

We analyze, forecast, and measure social impact. We avoid focusing on product or technology metrics focusing, instead, on the ultimate social aims of the work. We use broader understandings of scale including scaling up, out, deep, long, in, across, back, initial conditions, and scree.

We give talks on aspects of our approach or share case studies. Using a systems approach, we build coalitions who are flexible in where they can act in a system. We then co-build advocacy campaigns to sustainably stewarding systems towards system health.

We conduct co-discovery, co-design, and co-development of software, products, and services. We use an inclusive design approach focusing first on those usually forgotten or marginalized, recognizing that designing for them usually benefits everyone.
