Jyll Taylor provides consulting services to socially responsible
businesses, non-profits and social entrepreneurs with a particular
focus on organizational change and capacity building. She is a
strategic visionary with a global perspective
and strong commitment to preserving and developing sustainable
ecosystems and addressing inequality and injustice. The depth
of her work is an outgrowth of her unique personal experiences
as a woman of interracial heritage and a student of eastern philosophy
and religion who has lived and traveled extensively throughout
the world and witnessed and contributed to political and social
change.
She is the former Organizational Change Strategist
of Goodwill Industries of San Francisco, San Mateo and Marin Counties
of California, Executive Director of BELL (Building Educated Leaders
for Life), Development Officer for The Metropolitan Museum of
Art, Program Associate for the South Africa Partnership Program
at the New School for Social Research, and Technical Assistance
provider for the Open Society Institute. In addition to her independent
consulting work, Jyll is currently collaborating with the Kellogg
Foundation, Origo Social Enterprise Partners, Social Venture Technology
Group, the Social Enterprise Group and Bainbridge Graduate Institute
on various projects to advance the fields of social enterprise,
economic/social and environmental development at the base of the
economic period, and building the cultural capacity of organizations
to be sustainable.
As an accomplished photographer who
has been awarded several fellowships, including a Fulbright, to
conduct photo-ethnographic studies of diverse cultures around
the globe, Jyll offers an authentic perspective from which to
stimulate cross-cultural understanding. Her work has been shown
throughout the world, most notably at the Metropolitan Museum
of Art and as part of the 2001 United Nations World Conference
Against Racism in Durban, South Africa.
