Organizational Change

As an organization, we embrace the possibility of working toward a collective vision of a more just and equitable future. Shared decision making brings that vision into focus by diffusing competition, power hoarding, and transactional relationships and embedding the principles of equity, accountability, and transparency into Amplify's operating structures.
