Work With Us

We deliver the impact 
that's needed today.

 

Do Real Work with Real Impact

The work that we do together is not conceptual or abstract. We identify concrete goals collaboratively and we achieve those goals through proven methodologies. Because our services respond to rather than react to the moment, we are able to strategically tackle real world challenges in ways that engage — not prescribe. Our team has the ability to work with enterprise organizations as effectively as grassroots community organizations. Regardless of the size of a company or organization, it is possible to put sustainable, systemic change into place.

Let's dig into our three key offerings, Catalytic Experiences, Coaching and Advisory, and Community Building.

1. Catalytic Experiences

Our engaging training experiences provide participants with a strong understanding of the Groundwater metaphor — laying the foundation for deeper work within your organization to equip a broad range of participants to build better workplaces and communities. We offer a variety of formats, from private client training to a monthly training open to the public.

We give leaders the deep understanding and tools they need to drive organizational and societal impact. Participate in one of our cornerstone experiences on the structural and historical roots of racial inequity. The experience is led by two Groundwater Institute Program Leaders. Attendees learn through an engaging mix of video content and personalized reflection and discussion. Whether your organization is looking for help dealing with inequity, looking to advance your culture, or realigning to maximize impact, this session gives a sense for the kind of experience and transformation we create.

“I feel very grateful to have participated in this workshop, and want to thank both facilitators for doing a fantastic job creating a safe, comfortable space for folks from across the country to come together and discuss some very heavy topics. I was not sure what to expect from this session, but I feel re-committed to engaging in racial equity work, especially in the wake of our country's current political climate.”

“I texted the friend who recommended this to me that it does a much better job of connecting all the dots into an interconnected narrative than other similar trainings I've done”

2. Coaching and Advisory

Our coaching and advisory support offerings help leaders embed a groundwater lens into their decision-making and strengthen their organization’s impact. In some cases we work with teams to align their organizations with the insights from our cornerstone training on race and equity.

In others, we advise on culture, systems change, or strategy more broadly and often include bespoke trainings or experiences that help catalyze teams and forward movement.

We always work in close partnership with your leaders to design integrated, organization-wide approaches that spark meaningful shifts in culture, performance, and outcomes.

We are not a traditional consulting firm; instead, we guide and coach leaders, provide strategic frameworks, and empower them to make bold, informed decisions that move their organizations toward lasting, transformative change.

3. Community Building

 

Groundwater Network is a community of leaders committed to learning, connection, and collective action to drive the systemic change this moment demands. We bring together our training participants and likeminded partners who use an equity-focused, data-informed analysis and share the skills, courage, and commitment to confront structural inequity and build a world where everyone can thrive.

As a movement ecosystem, we cultivate broad-based coalitions and institutional power that make deep, lasting change possible. In practice, this means thousands of leaders impacting millions of workers. Anyone rooted in this work, such as those who have completed our immersive training or a comparable experience, is welcome to join; all we ask is a shared commitment to action.
