About us

What is true?

At 3rd Space, the search for truth moves us forward towards a better, brighter, more just and fair future and that this future is achievable when people are empowered to be change makers.

The pursuit of a just and fair future requires a holistic systems-level approach centered on people, data, and courage. We were founded to speak truth where truth is known or knowable, even when it is uncomfortable for ourselves or our clients. We challenge bias and champion the principles of:

fairness

consistency

transparency

equity

institutional transformation

Why do we do this work? Because we at 3rd Space believe that people and organizations that act on truth and eradicate bias from their operations perform better and are more innovative long-term than those that don’t.

Our Approach

How work is done is as crucial as the outcome

3rd Space is where you turn when you seek real understanding and effective solutions from an experienced team on the journey to a more equitable and just organization.

Central to our approach is the collection of high quality data. In order to support our clients solve issues we must first understand the pathways and systems enabling unfair or unjust outcomes. From there, the interpretation and application of these data requires principles, pragmatism, and flexibility.

3rd Space is about this sweet spot in the decision-making process, where data and their interpretation are both at their most objectively potent and subjectively relevant.

When you are ready, join us in the third space.
