PARTNERS & COLLABORATORS
Vision
Our vision is that we are aiming to support organizations in building beautiful, thriving teams and communities of work. We aim to help them recognize and appreciate the strengths already present in their people, including on their team, in their partners and community, and in their ecosystem of broader stakeholders. We aim to help them recognize what skills and perspectives are missing, what supports are needed, and where they might need to bring in external people or resources.
​
We work so that clients and candidates feel a deep sense of care, are recognized as humans, and are treated with empathy, care, and respect.
​
We believe in transparency, open communication, and agency for self-determination. We encourage and facilitate openness to different perspectives and an understanding of potential bias as it shows up in the consideration of candidates and candidate profiles. It is our intention to recognize and limit the power dynamics of recruiting and to build space for self-reflection that leads to people and organizations thriving.
Values
-
Community — We are one species in an interdependent ecosystem, and we all, human and otherwise, deserves to thrive.
-
Curiosity & Openness— We approach every engagement with openness, a love of learning, and a willingness to be surprised.
-
Empathy & Respect — We deeply value people’s agency and trust and strive to hold people's stories with care and protect their privacy.
-
Equity & Fairness — We work toward processes that name and mitigate bias, center the people and experiences of those most impacted by injustice, and value the strengths, beauty, and skills of every person while recognizing the systemic barriers that impact people’s lives and careers.
-
Gratitude & Humility — We show up grateful for the trust placed in us to hold people’s stories and understand that we are not the expert on people or organizations. We seek to balance our expertise and experience in search with understanding of how much there is still to learn.
-
Honesty, Integrity and Transparency— We believe trust is built through honest communication and consistent action, and we hold ourselves to that standard and communicate and set expectations knowing things won’t always go as planned.
-
Appreciation, Joy & Warmth — This work matters to us, and we bring our whole hearts to it. We know that the clients and candidates we work with do the same.
Our Commitments in AI Use
We acknowledge that the world is moving towards extensive integration of AI, and we are committed to doing all we can to work in ways aligned with our values and vision. We believe deeply in human-centered work and processes, and lay out these commitments for our use of AI:
-
We will be purposeful about using it in ways that align with our values.
-
We will never share people's names, organizations, or identifying information into generative AI in ways that might put their information at risk.
-
We will never use AI as a judge or assessment tool — including for candidate applications — recognizing there is no transparency in its potential biases or assumptions. We encourage candidates to show up as their best human selves as well.
-
We will be transparent in our framework for where we use AI.
-
We will seek consent when our AI usage impacts others.
-
We strive to research and use tools that do the least harm.
SERVICES & RATES
Having worked in direct service and small organizations, we believe deeply that every organization should have access to affordable talent support and partnership. We believe that organizations currently hold - or need to build - the deep relationships necessary for hiring the right talent as well as for other aspects of their work (strategy, advocacy, organizing, etc.). As a result, we believe in a partnered search process that supports the organization's engagement and relationship-building within its own community and leaves the organization and team not only with the right new hire, but also stronger and more connected and better supported for the work ahead.
​
Considering a community-rooted search process also opens space to re-examine how a recruitment process works and develops the strengths of your team for future hiring. In order to do this, every search process is designed based on the existing strengths and needs of your team and involves investment in the design of the project together. This means no search budget is the same, and every project is tailored to meet the unique needs of your team. Together, we will agree to a set of hours and services, and you will be billed you on a monthly basis on a sliding scale rate (from $175 - $300 per hour) based on your organization's budget. As a result, projects range from $7,000 - $60,000 based on who you are and how we partner together. To illustrate this, here are a few sample project designs and costs.
​
Every once in a while, we'll share some musings and thoughts, but follow us on LinkedIn where we lift up the wisdom and generous thoughts of so many incredible colleagues and leaders in the sector. That's also where you can find opportunities - both those we're working on and sharing from others!
