Organizational Resiliency Planning

We help mission-driven organizations fortify their teams, clarify priorities, and navigate uncertain times.

The world keeps shifting, but your mission doesn’t have to.

The organizations doing the most essential work—healthcare, education, social services, climate justice—are facing an unpredictable future.

Funding is tighter. Regulations are stricter. Burnout runs high.

  • Your team might be feeling:

    • Frustrated by limits on what you can say or who you can support

    • Burned out and emotionally stretched

    • Scared or anxious about what may come next

    • Disconnected or powerless to your mission

    • Hopeless about making real change

We created these sessions with all of this in mind for organizations doing essential work with limited capacity. Because even when things feel urgent, strategy still matters.

Organizational resiliency is built on the trust, expertise, and relationships on your team.

Our facilitation process helps teams slow down, surface tensions, and reorient toward shared purpose.

This is not about crisis response. It’s about building long-term strength, clarity, and connection.

What this offering helps you do:

Surface challenges, tensions, and conflicts so you may move cohesively as a team

Align your team around current priorities to make values-driven decisions in uncertain conditions

Fortify your team through scenario planning and creating a dynamic roadmap

Design Session Formats

We offer two formats, featuring the same content, to provide flexibility in engaging with organizations with varying needs and capacity.

Option 1: Full-Day Retreat

A 6-hour facilitated session with breaks and movement to bring your team together in one powerful day. We will use grounding, reflection, and alignment activities to move your team toward purposeful action.

In-person retreats are available in the San Francisco, Bay Area. If you are located elsewhere and would like to bring us in, travel costs would be additional and discussed separately.

Option 2: Three-Part Workshop Series (Virtual)

Three 2-hour sessions over the course of 1-5 weeks. Each two-hour session is focused and collaborative, giving your team space to align, adapt, and strategize with intention between workshops.

What Happens in Each Session

Session 1: What Was

Reflect on your organizational past to gain clarity and alignment around what matters most in this present moment

This session grounds your team in a shared understanding of your story, values, and the context that brought you to this moment. Together, we reflect on what has changed and what patterns are showing up for both the organization and the communities you serve.

Session 2: What Is

Connect on current challenges to make space for what needs to shift

We map your current landscape, including opportunities, challenges, and tensions. Your team will name what’s emerging and what needs to shift and be prioritized to stay aligned with your mission and the needs of your community.

Session 3: What Can Be

Chart a path forward with the momentum and energy to take action

In this final session, we translate insights into action. Through facilitated sense-making and prioritization, your team will shape a near-future strategic direction with clear priorities and next steps.

  1. Strategic Roadmap – Clear priorities and next steps

  2. Session Notes – Key reflections and insights captured

  3. Landscape Scan – External and internal assessment of your environment

  4. Risk Assessment & Early Warning Indicators – Guidance on what to watch for

  5. Asset & Strength Mapping – Identify existing sources of resilience

  6. Scenario Planning Summary – Future pathways and possibilities

  7. Curated Resources – Tools to sustain the work beyond our sessions

What you’ll walk away with:

After working with us, teams experience:

  • Greater emotional bandwidth and reduced burnout

  • Renewed clarity and connection

  • Realistic plans that adapt to change

  • Shared understanding of priorities and risks

  • A sense of agency and hope, even in uncertainty
