Working with the Shadida team has been absolutely game changing! Their team possesses a rare combination of strategic insight, empathy, systems and effective communication. Their ability to understand our team's challenges, provide clear direction, and foster a collaborative environment resulted in tangible, proven outcomes. Liz and Thabiti consistently went above and beyond, offering not just solutions but valuable guidance at every step.

Liz was extremely intentional, thoughtful, and wise throughout all of the sessions. She cultivated a space for real growth, reflection, and community to flourish. Her collaboration shaped not only the programming content, but also the program's culture, in ways that will echo beyond the cohort experience. I would wholeheartedly recommend Shadida Solutions, and would have high confidence in any organization that seeks growth, and transformative, community-centered programming.

We worked with Shadida Solutions to bring a kernel of an idea of a coalition we wanted to build into reality. The team’s capacity to notice the hard stuff that we didn't (leadership dynamics! transition challenges!), while also keeping the trains moving through agile project management, while also deftly facilitating our whole group conversations, was artful and needed. Our coalition has become a national model for exactly the things that they pushed us to consider and work on. They have become an extension of our work—they pushed us to define our ‘backbone’ of the coalition, but really, they have been the backbone. We feel so fortunate to have worked with them!

Liz is a masterful facilitator--both direct and caring. Something that is invaluable when bringing senior leaders together to not only accomplish what needs to get done, but to do so in a way that made us stronger as a team. She ensured that our senior leadership team and cohort of executive directors had the space to build together, provided us with tools that lasted long after the facilitation ended, and she took the time to truly get to know each of us individually. I can't recommend Liz more highly, your team will be stronger and more cohesive because of her.

I really appreciated how Liz held space with both structure and softness-- it created a rhythm that felt grounded. The blend of reflection, coaching, group dialogue and embodied practice helped bring the concepts to life in a way that felt personal and spacious. Three cheers for excellent execution and genuine connection!
