What Our Partners Are Saying
“Equity Labs helped us as an organization to realize there’s important work to be done and what’s the best way for us to embrace, learn about, and underatke this work. And I think having a partner like Equity Labs is key to that, having a group of people that are focused on that space, being able to introduce the concepts and start difficult conversations. It’s a catalyst. We need to go from A to B. If you want to go from A to B quickly and as most efficiently as possible, you hire the experts. ”
“This was a space to truly learn with others and about yourself. They provide valuable resources, real-world examples, and authentic dialogue about how to take on this vital work in genuine, system-wide and individual ways. They take huge concepts and break them down for participants over multiple sessions with amazing coaching along the way. I would highly recommend this training for individuals and organizations!”
