Team Building Services
Career/Executive Coaching
MPG Consulting has a special commitment to ensuring that individuals and agencies serving diverse populations are prepared to provide clients with transformative culturally and racially attuned clinical, programmatic, and administrative services. Our goals for career & executive coaching and team building grow out of the perspective and approach we bring to all of our services. We understand the constructs and intersections of racism, hetero-sexism, sexism and other forms of oppression based on social identity. We understand and present the intersection of gender bias, LGBTQIAP+ bias, and gender non-conforming bias with racism.
We approach career & executive coaching and team building in ways that invite participants to engage with us and with each other in a non-shaming, non-blameful, non-judgmental collaborative manner that tackles the difficult questions, engages the difficult discussions in a transparent manner – and brings everyone’s authentic voice to the table.
