Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) for Consultants

To be notified when applications open, sign up for the TSNE newsletter.

About the Cohort

Traditional consulting practices have been developed through the lens of a relationship between the “experts” and their clients. This has often led to consulting practices that view nonprofits through a deficit lens and top-down practices that emulate power dynamics that devalue the expertise of the people in the organization. Additionally, diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging (DEIB) strategies have grown in visibility and value without the sufficient access to tools, resources and knowledge to allow nonprofits and consultants to thoroughly integrate them. These are the dynamics which we aim to shift. 

The virtual diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging (DEIB) for consultants program provides a community of practice for consultants to hone their skills and confidence in integrating these practices , particularly with a racial equity lens, into their work with clients.

About the Program

The DEIB for Consultants Program and related curriculum were jointly developed and piloted by TSNE and The Institute for Nonprofit Practice.

Over the course of eight virtual sessions, participants will gain insights into the evolving field of DEIB work, while engaging with key frameworks, and applying lessons to their own practice, all within a learning community of peers.

Whether your client work focuses on fundraising, financial management, event planning, marketing, or organizational development, this program will help hone your practice. Along with a consideration for race, gender identity, and sexual orientation, we aim to select a cohort that is also diverse in functional expertise and experience. Our goal is to help you build your skills, confidence, and knowledge base that will serve you for your entire career.

The program is designed for consultants who are:

  • Practicing consultants with four or more years of experience
  • Enthusiastic about deepening the work of nonprofit clients to create more inclusive and equitable organizational cultures
  • Excited to learn with, and from, peers in a cohort-based experience
  • Curious and willing to explore a nonprofit’s practice and personal background
  • Looking to engage in difficult conversations with peers and prepared to learn through self-reflection
  • Eager to learn more about systems of oppression and the impact of structural inequities specific to race and ethnicity
