Supporting purpose-driven organizations that believe in equity, inclusion and justice.

Our Why

Purpose-driven organizations that believe in equity, inclusion and justice often fail to act in alignment with those values, partly because of gaps in understanding, skill and capacity. These failures hinder organizations’ ability to achieve their purpose, and make them less-desirable workplaces and less-reliable collaborators, reducing their overall positive impact. With Think Again’s help, organizations can make an immediate improvement and develop the capacity to continue improving internally, in programs, and in external partnerships, with a focus on racial justice and intersectional equity.

DEI isn’t transactional…

it’s transformational

Why work with us

  • We envision a world in which ecosystems of organizations, communities, networks, and individuals collaborate to transform themselves and broader systems to continually move toward a world of fair, plentiful, joyful, and connected living and working conditions for all.

  • We hold equity and leadership of the people most impacted by oppression as central to all our values, which include:

    Transformation: We support change that starts with repair and healing of historical and ongoing harms and that alters the shape of systems, common practices, and individual behaviors

    Relationality: We collaborate and ensure accessibility for everyone to have a voice.

    Accountable action: We use cyclical approaches and insight from those most affected by decisions and oppression to continuously learn, assess impact, repair, and adjust.

    Ingenuity: We ground ourselves in the reality of the moment and act flexibly and creatively to meet multiple needs within multiple contexts, drawing on most impacted peoples’ lineage of survivance - surviving amidst oppression via unofficial means.

    Joy: We believe that joy is necessary for existence and we seek to make it possible for ourselves and all others.

  • Collaboration is a cornerstone of our approach. We work closely with clients, co-creating solutions that address their specific needs and challenges. By fostering partnerships and building relationships based on trust and mutual respect, Think Again creates lasting impact within organizations and communities.

  • Consulting clients that engage in a tailored, comprehensive assessment and consulting process realize immediate improvement while building internal capacity to continue honing their approach in operations, programs, and external partnerships. Organizations build shared understanding and skills, establish equitable organizational systems, and improve workplace climate. They also begin building accountable relationships with internal and external stakeholders who are most impacted by societal inequities, in order to get the kinds of feedback that allow for continual iteration and improvement. In short-term trainings, participants gain tools they can continue applying in their day-to-day practices, which contributes to improving organizational climate and outcomes and sets the stage for further learning, development and action.

  • Think Again fosters a culture of continuous learning and development, both with clients and within our own team. Our services encourage reflection, critical thinking, and skill-building. Team members engage in ongoing professional development to stay abreast of emerging trends and best practices, ensuring that Think Again remains at the forefront of equity-focused training and consulting.
