  • "Seandra and her team at Rooted do their homework! They come to the meeting prepared, knowing the issues and potential conflicts, and facilitate the meeting smoothly and efficiently. Seandra is professional and handles complex issues with poise and grace - she is a master at facilitating! I would highly recommend Rooted and will use them again. "

    -Anne Heikkila, Board President, Georgia Forest Watch

  • Seandra’s approach to racial equity is so thoughtful. It's productive. It’s encouraging. It’s uniting. I value how she focuses on asking the right questions, not just having the right answers – and certainly not writing people off or compartmentalizing human complexity. I always learn something. In this challenging time – with enormous problems and opportunities – Seandra’s approach makes people better people, not just professionals in this crazy world. And we're better for having her."

  • "Conversations around equity, especially for a group of white-led philanthropic organizations, can be hard. Rooted helped us navigate those conversations with important insights and consistent grace. Most importantly, Seandra kept bringing us back to the central question of what our collaboration was trying to accomplish, which helped to ensure we didn't lose sight of the "why" and "how" of our goal. We are so grateful for Rooted's expertise! We look forward to seeing the fruit of our collaboration from working with Seandra and the Rooted Group team! "

    John Lanier, Executive Director, Ray C. Anderson Foundation

  • "As part of our strategic planning process, we were seeking ways to better diversify our board, staff, and membership. Seandra took us through a planning process that helped us to better navigate D&I questions and plan goals for incorporation of D&I into our 3-year plan. She helped us to achieve a clear understanding of what specifically needed to happen with Flint Riverkeeper, and make a plan to achieve, and effectively execute it."

    Gordon Rogers, Execuive Director, Flint Riverkeeper
