Our Story
Our Approach
Our Approach
Our story began with a simple belief: that strategic empathy is a fundamental component of successful policies, whether at the government, organization, or community level. Our founder saw a need for a new, human-centered approach to foreign policy, communications and workplace mental health, and set out to create a company that would meet that need.
