sandra grace consulting:
Equipping people to transform systems
Our Founder & Principal Consultant, Clair Minson, founded Sandra Grace Consulting LLC in 2020 to fulfill her vision of developing workforce ecosystems around equitable and actively anti-racist policies. The Sandra Grace team is committed to helping our clients at the intersection of talent development and racial equity. We believe that adopting a racial equity framework and practice is an approach to the world that involves many components including
Recognizing the role of historical and current conditions that create and maintain systemic inequities
Shifting the way you see and understand the underlying causes of inequity
Adopting a “Fruit and Root Analysis™” to examine root causes and their manifestations
Making the implicit explicit, moving from an implied practice of racial equity to an explicit application of racial equty
These four focus areas will be the foundational framework for how we approach our work with you.
