Equity Audits & Strategy
For organizations ready to understand what's working, what's getting in the way, and where to focus next.
Culture changes when systems do
Culture doesn't change through good intentions alone. It changes when leaders understand the systems creating the current reality and commit to building something different.
Our equity audits and strategic planning services use data, lived experience, and practical guidance to help you build systems rooted in clarity, belonging, and accountability. We don't just hand you a report—we partner with you through implementation so the work actually sticks.
-
Comprehensive assessment of policies, practices, and culture to identify gaps and opportunities for greater equity and inclusion.
-
Deep-dive analysis of your organizational structure, systems, and dynamics to surface what's supporting or hindering your mission.
-
Confidential employee feedback gathering and analysis to understand the actual experience of working at your organization.
Services Include:
-
Facilitated processes that align your team around vision, values, and strategic priorities—with equity woven throughout.
-
Multi-year plans that move you from aspiration to action, with clear milestones, accountability measures, and resource allocation.
-
Ongoing partnership to help you execute on recommendations, navigate resistance, and build internal capacity for sustained change.
Strong organizations don’t just happen. They’re built.
At Construct the Present, we support organizations ready to strengthen their culture, align their teams, and build systems that make equity and effectiveness the default—not the exception.
Staff who once avoided discussing bias were confidently addressing discriminatory patterns in lending decisions. Leadership will notice how equity is shaping decisions without prompting. The real shift? Staff will stop asking "do we have to?" and start asking "how do we go deeper?" This is what's possible when training is designed for your industry, delivered consistently, and built for real application—not compliance checkboxes.
What Happens When Equity Training Actually Works
Work with Us
Every team is different. The best way to know if we're the right fit is a conversation about what your team is navigating. We'll discuss your team's dynamics, what's working and what's not, what you've tried, and what success looks like. Then we'll recommend an approach—workshop series, retreat, alignment session, or reflective practice.
