Consultancy

We help people say what they believe, and act on it.

We’ve moved policy with a single story, changed laws from inside a state senate, and built rooms where people who disagree can still hear each other. We bring that work to the organizations, founders, and leaders we partner with.

What we do

Every engagement is built for the partner in front of us. We bring together the right mix of strategists, storytellers, and facilitators for the work, and stay with it from plan to launch.

01

Narrative and messaging

For launches, campaigns, and causes that need people to care. We find the human story, the unexpected messenger, and the moment.

  • Narrative development and message architecture
  • Messenger, creator, and partnership strategy
  • Signature campaigns and launch moments
  • Public voice for leaders: op-eds, speeches, interview prep
02

Culture and leadership

For organizations carrying political and religious difference inside their walls. We help leaders and teams name what they believe and disagree without breaking apart.

  • Workshops on belief, difference, and moral courage
  • Facilitation for hard conversations
  • Values and culture work with leadership teams
  • Guidance for leaders in a charged public moment
03

Convenings and retreats

For communities that need to gather around a real question. We design and host rooms that leave people changed.

  • Genuine Media LIVE events, 100 to 500 people
  • Weekend retreats for teams, donors, and members
  • Signature convenings for foundations and coalitions
  • Recorded and adapted for podcast, newsletter, and social
