Ask the consultant

One DSD Consult

Bring a piece of work you are shaping, and the consultant will think it through with you. You will hear back within two business days, and you can return to your request at any time to see where it stands.

Your request

Tell the consultant about your work

A few general details are enough to begin. Please leave out client, medical, personnel, and complaint details, and anything that identifies a person.

About you

Your name

Your work email

Updates about your request will be sent here.

Your unit or team (optional)

Your supervisor

Your supervisor, and your manager if you name one, will be able to see that you asked for help, the kind of help, and where your request stands. They will not see what you write about the work. The Deputy Director and Division Director can see requests across the division in the same way.

Your supervisor's name

Your supervisor's work email

Your manager's work email (optional)

Add your manager if you would like them to see the same.

The work

What is the work called?

A short name is enough. Your supervisor will see it.

What kind of help would be most useful?

When do you need to act?

I’m planning aheadI need support within two weeksI have a firm deadlineThe work is already in use and needs prompt attention

What is the work about?

Describe it in general terms.

What would you like to leave the consultation with?

I am asking about applying equity to my work, not about a complaint, grievance, investigation, accommodation request, or discipline matter.

Using One DSD Consult is voluntary, and asking for help is never used to evaluate you.

What happens next

A reply within two business days

The consultant will let you know who is taking your request on. After that, your private link shows where things stand, and when the work is finished it carries a short note about how it turned out.

If you decide you no longer need help, you can withdraw the request from the same page.

When another team is the better place

Complaints, investigations, grievances, accommodation decisions, and discipline about a named person go to Employee Culture, Human Resources, or the civil-rights channel. Legal interpretation goes to the policy or legal owner. Anything touching a Tribal Nation goes to the Office of Indian Policy or your Tribal liaison first.
