Who We Are

Hi, we’re Totem. We focus on the intersection of people, change and measured impact. As a Native American-owned, small business, we help clients implement actionable solutions that both address business challenges and improve workforce capacity. Our partnership style is to meet you where you are. We work with you to collaboratively chart the course for the future – in a way that drives sustainable change and demonstrates clear results.

What We Value

Totem is built on a fundamental belief in diversity and inclusiveness.
We strive to create a work environment that recognizes and promotes individual needs and collective success.

Authenticity

We lead with authenticity – from how we build relationships to how we engage with clients to how we support our teammates. Authenticity shows up in our transparency and mutual respect of others.

Curiosity

We are naturally curious. Curiosity helps us find the best solutions and continue to grow. We ask questions — and truly listen — as a key ingredient of our partnership with one another and with our clients.

Balance

We seek balance in all aspects of life. And we also know it’s not one-size-fits-all. We support our people to find the right mix of balance across our client work, personal lives, and passion projects.

Collaboration

We bring together diverse people and ideas to create the best solutions. Our community of connected teammates, clients, and partners exponentially improves our ideas.

Belonging

We believe in creating an environment where people feel free to explore and grow. At Totem, belonging is built through trust and is expressed through levity.
