Collaborative Consultation
Advancing equity within academic institutions is complex and contextual. Whether you’re just getting started, navigating resistance or a specific challenge, or working to sustain existing efforts, you don’t have to figure it out alone.
You know change is needed. Let's explore how to move it forward, together. ​
Through the Transforming Academia for Equity (TAE) initiative, Change Matrix offers four free hours of personalized coaching and consultation for individuals and teams working to advance equity, inclusion, and institutional change in schools and programs of public health and other academic settings.
Our experienced Change Consultants serve as thought partners, helping you understand your institutional context, navigate complex challenges, build on existing strengths, and identify practical ways to move forward.
Who Is This For?
This opportunity is designed for faculty, staff, administrators, students, institutional
leaders, and teams working to create more equitable and inclusive academic
environments. Whether you're building support for a new initiative or program,
navigating challenges, strengthening shared leadership, or just want someone to share
ideas with, our consultants will meet you where you are.
