What We Do
We understand the value of leadership development and organizational sustainability as tools to build connection, dismantle inequity, and foster thriving communities.
We sum up our offerings through our three core strategies:
For Leaders
We create trusted spaces for inner work, healing, and leadership development to reduce burnout and isolation among BIPOC leaders and center connection and well-being
For Organizations
We cultivate liberatory and sustainable organizations through consulting, coaching, and convening philanthropic and nonprofit teams to transform their workplace governance, accountability systems, and practices
For Communities
We amplify, advocate, and influence decision-makers towards power and resource redistribution through our research, tool development, and writing
Leaders Thriving
ProInspire designs and hosts customized fellowship, cohort programs, and communities of practice that build community and connection for leaders of color in the social sector. Since 2009, we’ve implemented more than 20 leadership programs throughout the country. For philanthropy, we have also served as a convener and capacity builder for their grantees, fostering deeper relationships and cultivating a trustful peer network among participants. For some case examples of our work, see below.
