Rachel Wyley

Rachel Wyley began her nonprofit career as a Teaching Fellow in East Oakland and concluded it as the Executive Director of a health equity-focused nonprofit. She is the Founder of Culture Kinesis, a coaching firm that does the work of cultural reimagination by creating containers in which individuals and organizations can (re)build intentional community, engage in critical unlearning, embrace radical re-education, and then, reimagine a racially equitable future.As a fundraising leader, she dislodged revenue practices that relied on status quo donor archetypes, installed equity and inclusion as key fixtures of board culture, tripled representation of board members of color, and secured the largest gift in the recent history of her region (due to her authenticity and candor with funders).She is above all an artist - and understands creativity to be the solution to racial inequity, not simply its mirror or megaphone.
