Hear from our clients

"Seed Collaborative - specifically Evan Holland and Rodas Hailu - were phenomenal to work with from start to finish. The Long Beach Housing Justice Coalition hired Seed to facilitate its coalition planning retreat...Evan and Rodas listened carefully and asked critical questions to then create, customize, and iteratively refine three thoughtful and relevant session agendas that built off each other. During the sessions themselves, Evan was an extremely adept facilitator, ensuring that everyone felt seen and heard...The Seed team also brought important resources and activities to the table regarding accountability from a transformative justice lens and individual/organization capacity assessment. I can't recommend Seed highly enough, and within a couple months of our initial work together, I am looking to hire Seed once again for a different coalition!"
Elsa Mei Tung | Land Use Program Manager | Long Beach Forward, member of the Long Beach Housing Justice Coalition

"Seed is amazing, full stop. It's rare to find consultants who truly listen, who embrace the culture of OUR organization, rather than insisting on their own, who ensure we get to the right place for US, and who make it all feel fun in the process. Every time we work with SEED we feel heard, supported, and like we're able to move forward."

"Paul Hudson was a mentor to me from the start-up of ICEF and as it grew. He has a razor sharp mind, he is kind, and has a great sense of humor. One of the best humans I have ever known. I hope more learn from him, and I hope more foundations support his work."

"Thank you for your flexibility today for the managers’ meeting with the earlier start and an additional break. I am already seeing a lot of positive feedback in our post-meeting survey. Managers are starting to internalize the lessons and they are seeing and participating in our shift to tangible actions. It’s very encouraging!"

"It was amazing! Honestly it was worth every dollar. I know that it was all rushed including the payment part but we got it done."

"Seed provided stellar facilitation and strategic guidance throughout our merger exploration process. Their deep knowledge of nonprofit governance, organizational effectiveness and racial equity principles positioned them well to navigate difficult conversations with ease and guide a diverse group of stakeholders to an unanimous decision to merge. They also brought joy to our process which helped deepen trust between our stakeholders and their team. We would rehire them in a second and in fact, we already have!"
