Mission, Values, and Approach

Mission

Forward Movement Consulting activates leaders and organizations within social justice movements to be bolder, clearer, and more authentic in their fight to amplify the voices and power of communities of color.

Values

Forward Movement Consulting partners with a network of clients and collaborators that align with our core values.

Authenticity

Being true to yourself means fully embracing who you are and not who you or others feel you are supposed to be. Removing the masks that you wear allows for radical honesty to serve as an anchor to create an intentional path to authenticity.

Vulnerability

When on a path of achieving goals that require an openness to self-discovery, it is important to not surrender to pre-conceived notions, barriers, or assumptions that could hinder full transparency. This means being vulnerable enough to allow for true introspection.

Change

Change is constant. And it starts with a deep desire to be your best self or to do your best work. The shift in mindset and approach often happens when there is self reflection, questioning and reconciling what is, what is not, and what could be... This cycle helps to normalize change and enables you to fully embrace it. Change is the gateway to real transformation.

Forward Movement Consulting holds its clients at the center of the work. With a deeply thoughtful approach that is customized for each client, FMC provides a grounded analysis of the values, mission, and goals of each partner in order to achieve their greatest impact.
