Derute Consulting Cooperative

It's out! Our 2nd Black Paper! It covers our structure, routines, and practices as a #cooperative. We welcome feedback and insight from you all, @ninacollective @CooperationJXN @CooperationTown @EverythingCoop deruteconsulting.com/black-papers/2…

We've been in the lab working on a creative project with @equityproject. It's got us doing erasure poems, hacking policy documents, and making comics! Here's a sample frame from a series about the nonprofit industrial complex. Feedback session is next.

We are flying high from a narrative #hacking session we held today with a group of partners. Powerful insights always come when we not only critique but also tinker, play, and create.

@vulkcoop 👋🏿

We are a few minutes out from our monthly member meeting, and @ReStoryingCoop will be joining us to focus on wellness!

📚🚨 A new book on racial equity in schools by one of our members! This work has informed a great deal of what we do with school leaders! 🚨📚

@Tom_c_watson The more people doing fly shit, the better!

Looking to connect with Black and Brown human centered #design consultants/firms. Any help? @AIGAdesign @AIGAChicago @aigadc Tx. Pls RT.

Heavy, conceptual member meeting today as we shift thinking about our infrastructure project. Some #design iterations that got us moving:

Thanks to our partners at @equityproject for having us facilitate an equity hack today. What needs to be hacked? Who needs to do the hacking?

We loved meeting with a group of longtime collaborators today who are thinking about starting a consulting #cooperative. Some Qs we answered: What is your business structure? How do you collaborate? Make decisions? Expand "expertise"? We can't wait to see what they do!
