Metropolitan

“Metropolitan Group was an invaluable partner and guide as we developed the messaging and strategy for the Ready For 100 campaign. Their approach was really rooted in understanding people’s values across geographic and political lines, tapping into the power of Sierra Club’s grassroots strength, and supporting our emphasis on a just transition to clean energy—for all. I’d work with them again in a heartbeat!”

“What I appreciate most about working with MG is the intentionality and commitment they bring to every interaction. They ask the right questions (why are we doing this? whom are we trying to reach?), and they always bring an equity and social justice lens to the work they do. Their work is incredibly high quality, and their accountability is 100 percent. The work we do together makes me better at what *I* do.”

“We worked in partnership with Metropolitan Group for years on the Creating Connection initiative, which served to strengthen the local arts and cultural sector by providing organizations with proven messages and strategies that demonstrate the connection between their offerings and the public’s existing values. When we wanted to expand that spirit to engage all of the people who live in, work in and visit San José, we turned again to MG for their strategy, creativity and engaging design work to launch WeCreate408. I really appreciate their long-time collaboration.”

“This work was of and by Indian Country – multiple formats, multiple sources, and just as importantly multiple egos – and so the importance of familiarity, the importance of understanding relationships, and most importantly, the importance of respect  – these were all without compromise and there are few folks who can bring all these things to the party.  Metropolitan Group is one of the very few.  We knew this from an earlier and much successful project. And they did not disappoint in our work on Native Justice.  We would engage them again in a heartbeat for another complex project.”

“We are thrilled with the final product, and I want to express my gratitude to the MG team for your leadership and facilitation throughout the past two years. It has truly been a wild ride! Without your support, we would not be where we are today. I feel confident that Frontline Resource Institute has the solid foundation it needs to establish itself as a long-lasting institution in the movement.”

“Creating Connection was a wonderful and thoughtful process that affirmed our organizational practices and provided many opportunities for our staff and company to grow. We continue to amplify our messaging to focus even more on individual and collective impact stories of our arts in education work, and have greatly expanded our digital platforms to reach a much wider audience. The training and technical assistance, both broad-based and tailored specifically to our needs, was exceptional.”
