The TEE Method™
The analytical lens running through all of Tonisha's work. Three questions every leader should be able to answer about any system they operate in.
Transparency
Who holds the data? Who sets the rules? What is visible — and what is deliberately obscured?
Ethics
Whose values are embedded in the system? Who benefits, and who bears the cost?
Equity
Is access genuinely equal? Are outcomes fair? What structural change is needed to get there?
