Come together. Make a way forward.

The Sambai Circle provides group process consulting, design, and facilitation to drive equitable culture & systems change.


Whether the goals are cultural, technical, or structural, lasting change in human organizations is fundamentally relational.

Systems change is a people process.

The Sambai Circle helps create connection and shared direction when histories, perspectives, and priorities differ, but the future is shared.

We work with leaders in education, public service, and social and environmental impact.

Client partners include:

  • Los Angeles County Office of Education

  • Stanford University Hopkins Marine Station

  • California Rural Legal Assistance

  • International Research & Exchanges Board

Our Approach is rooted in a belief that change efforts work best when people get to equitably participate, contribute, and lead together in shaping their own way forward.

Aligning people across differences is challenging.

Moving forward together is possible.
