ABOUT GROUNDSWELL CHANGE

We are an organizational development consultancy that frames Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion as a strategic institutional management imperative grounded in consideration of policy, structure, and operational process rather than an exclusive focus on mindset/awareness exercises.

We believe people and culture are the drivers of transformational outcomes. When they are structurally valued, organizations are more equipped to attract and retain a diverse team and produce the best results.
