Community and team culture consultancy

As community projects grow, it’s normal to encounter various challenges related to interpersonal relationships and community engagement. These can include needing to revisit or codify core values, address conflict, or discuss how to respond to code of conduct reports. 

If you’re interested in talking to us about your current community or team culture challenge, please contact info@cscce.org to schedule a 30 minute informational call.

What we offer

Our consultancy offerings around team culture focus on guiding you towards finding a solution that works, rather than prescribing next steps. Some ways that we do this include: 

  • An expanded version of our Creating core values statements Mini-workshop – in this multi-part interactive workshop series, we’ll facilitate the co-creation of a new set of core values that are unique to your community or team. 
  • Creating community guidelines – and escalation guidelines. This work generally builds on an initial commitment to developing a set of core values, and then applying those values to update or adapt existing community participant guidelines / codes of conduct.
  • Mini-workshops and/or facilitated conversations to explore your specific challenges around conflict resolution and team-building – including exploring styles of conflict, stakeholder engagement, and planning for successful collaborations.
