Equity-Centered Leadership “Equity-centered leadership is both a way of being and doing. It is the lens through which we see the world and the tool we use to transform it.”
Beyond mission statements, solidarity statements, and diversity training lies the transformative power of engineering real and substantive equity-centered change. At Strategic Change Solutions, we equip stakeholders to identify and address inequity in our institutions, communities, and society using our Equity, Justice, and Liberation Framework™. Our framework is a set of organizing principles and operating models that place equity, justice, and liberation at the center of decision-making, strategic planning, and program design.
Equity challenges are complex. It's tempting to implement a quick fix or a soft solution, but these typically yield ineffective and unsustainable results. While equity-centered transformational change can be challenging, the benefits are worth it. Organizations prioritizing equity are more innovative, have stronger relationships with their communities, improve service delivery, and enjoy higher employee engagement and satisfaction levels.
We take a customized approach to examining equity challenges and identifying liberatory design methodologies that can transform policies, practices, and power structures. Our methods include participatory action research, design thinking, and more. Once a plan is in place, we collaborate to implement tangible and testable solutions that eradicate inequity, advance justice, and foster liberation.
