Building Inclusive, High-Performing Public Institutions

At C3E, we believe that embedding equity into local government operations isn’t just the right thing to do—it’s a strategic imperative. Effective governance in the 21st century requires an inclusive, diverse, and high-performing workforce. That’s why we help local governments move beyond outdated “big government” narratives toward a modern, responsive, and inclusive public sector.

We partner with public institutions to implement organizational learning programs that build internal capacity and create a culture of equity and inclusion. By addressing historical barriers and outdated processes, we empower leaders to transform their organizations, ensuring public institutions reflect the diverse communities they serve.

We provide local governments with the tools, training, and strategies to create lasting, equity-driven change. Our signature programs are: 

• Reimagining Equity through Dynamic Inquiry (REDI): a structured approach to identifying inequities and co-designing tailored solutions to drive organizational change and enhance performance management.
• Learning to Operationalize and Realize Equity (LORE): a learning academy focused on operationalizing equity through leadership development and continuous improvement.

Our Areas of Expertise: 

• Learning & Development (L&D) Strategy Design
• Equity-Driven Change & Performance Management
• Assessing & Mapping Existing Policies 
• Equity Review & Assessments Implementation 
• Organizational Learning Culture & Knowledge Management 
• Measuring Meaningful Impact
