“a future by design, not by default.”
~rob evans, collaborative design expert

 

collabyrinth enables your team, organization, or community of goodwill to increase the impact, equity, or common good of the work you do.

we are equity/systems/change problem-solvers. as such, when it comes to equity/systems/change issues, we can figure them out for you (design); we can help you as a leader figure them out (advisory); or we can help your stakeholders figure them out together so that neither the problem nor solution is left to be owned by only one person (facilitation). most importantly, we can also help your team, organization, or community incorporate what has been figured out into all your dealings (strategy). these constitute our 4 areas of service.

collabyrinth‘s services are customized to meet a your needs. we do not bill by the hour or by the component. as would be expected dealing with a firm focused on designing equity, fees are calculated by the project on a sliding scale, based on client profile, desired impact, and the assets required to achieve that impact.
