A responsive and interactive consulting platform comprised of speakers, writers, artists, researchers, entrepreneurs, thought leaders and public servants who are committed to listening, understanding, and working with clients in order to convert their current experiences with problems into a larger space for discussing, developing and implementing solutions.
Our services include:
Consulting
Going deep inside the problem space to extract likely levers of change; we “listen” closely to the problem.
Coaching
Using what we hear to advise and coach leaders and their teams to help them focus and stay inside their vision for change.
Communicating
Using what we learn to create new narratives that support change efforts.
We Help Solve Problems
Do you ever wonder why we, as a nation, keep throwing money at hard problems and the problems keep winning?
We Create Space For Solutions
Why does it seem as though we are working hard on big problems in spaces that are too small to get anything done?
We Manage Change Efforts
Why are our public narratives and conversations most often about describing problems in sound bites focused on who, what, where, and when but not on why or on how to address the problems and make change?
Featured Topic
A space where we feature what our Team Members (and friends) are putting out in the public way...to change the narrative and to solve hard problems.

We have built a faulty system – one that defaults to “policing” families, when what is needed is a system that restores families.

The problem with public problems is that they do not really feel “public” until there is a tragedy or disaster. It is not that “We the Public” are unaware that something is wrong; we are just not intimately connected with the struggles waged by those living inside the problem.
