Building a Both/And Blueprint
Our process starts by taking a deep-dive into your organization’s current state — talking to individual creatives, managers, and organizational leaders to get a better understanding of your cultural challenges, pain points, and areas for improvement.
Then, together with key voices from across your teams, we’ll develop your company’s Both/And Blueprint: an actionable strategy, and roadmap, for creating measurable change at individual, organizational, and industry-wide levels.
Our Both/And Blueprints include specific recommendations for:
organizational communications
industry collaboration + advocacy
implementation timelines
ongoing impact measurement
team + leadership trainings
resources + benefits
policy + process revisions
support + facilitation partners
Inspired by humans. Backed by science.
We developed our Both/And process, and philosophy, based on a series of frameworks that follow the principles of human-centered design, integrative practices, and holistic systems thinking.

Progress is a community effort
