We design and conduct research that centers employee and community perspectives to inform strategy, policy, and systems change. Using qualitative and participatory methods, we uncover the human stories and systemic patterns that drive (or hinder) economic well-being.

Example projects include:

• Worker experience studies and ownership culture assessments

• Readiness research for shared ownership transitions

• Local economic ecosystem mapping and analysis

• Research-to-narrative translation and communications support

We help partners reshape the stories that define our economic systems and reimagine what’s possible.

Through strategic communications, storytelling frameworks, and educational tools, we make complex ideas like shared ownership and regenerative economies accessible and actionable.

Example projects include:

• Narrative framework development for field-building initiatives

• Story collection and synthesis for ecosystem partners

• Public education campaigns and communications strategy

• Workshops and curriculum design for business owners, journalists, and advocates

We convene leaders across sectors: business, policy, philanthropy, academia, and community, to align strategies and build shared infrastructure for a more equitable economy.

Our facilitation bridges networks, disciplines, and geographies to create the conditions for systems change.

Example projects include:

• Local and state ecosystem-building initiatives

• Multi-stakeholder convenings and roundtables

• Strategic planning and cross-sector facilitation

• Systems mapping and alignment for economic development
