Organizational Development and Change

Tina will guide you through the process of integrating equity, anti-oppression and inclusion into key organizational initiatives.

She brings extensive experience working with management and employee groups to conduct systems reviews, formulate and promote new policies and programs, and develop action plans and customized tools for implementation. In addition to advising on strategies for change, Tina coaches senior managers to lead more effectively when contentious issues related to equity and diversity arise.

“It’s not a cookie cutter process she takes you through. She does a needs assessment to garner the needs of layers of your organization and pulls together a comprehensive strategy and builds components which might include learning experiences, curriculums, tools and more.”
