Our Services

Our team at OrgMycology work with all sorts of organizations, but our “home base” tends to be in academia, open source, and open science.

Given that our skills are heavy in the qualitative research department, we can help with services around:

Strategy and Organizational Research: Understanding how organizations, stakeholders, and communities came to be, their strengths, what they have struggled with, challenges, and ways to manage as needs change. Supporting organizational and community leaders with strategic planning, business model exploration, and financial sustainment approaches.
Leadership and Management: Working with leadership to deepen their leadership skills and to map organizational structure to organizational priorities. Creating skills maps and rubrics with community input.
Landscape analysis and industry research: Supporting organizations in understanding the current opportunities and challenges within their niche to enable a evidence-based conversation.
Open Facilitation Strategies: running in-person and online events to host fractal conversations, engage the community, and gather insights. You can sample these techniques by attending one of our Oblique Thinking Hours. Participation can result in:
- Deeper understanding across disciplines/fields/community subgroups
- Materials, data, and research
- Conversations about decision-making process and structure
Community engagement research: including surveys, interviews, user experience research and analysis.
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) research:
- Evaluating diversity in communities.
- Bringing community voices into the DEI conversation.
