Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
Overview
Your business can’t truly thrive unless every employee is thriving. But the diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) strategies of yesterday simply aren’t enough to build an innovative, future-ready culture that embraces diversity at every stage, from recruitment through retention and advancement.
As innovators in diversity consulting, we can help. DEI is embedded in our mission, and through our own journey we’ve built extraordinary teams and an award-winning culture. We’ve spent decades supporting our clients in people-centered organizational transformations, and we’ve learned many valuable lessons along the way. We know that a more diverse and inclusive environment doesn’t just benefit employees; companies that commit to DEI outperform their peers across a wide range of critical metrics.
A Comprehensive Approach
Holistic
We work closely with your leadership team to frame the aspirations that will guide your long-term vision, and we support the journey with a best-in-class change management toolkit.
Data-driven
We help you measure employees’ shifting mindsets and behaviors, delivering a data-rich fact base that describes your current state and translates your aspiration into measurable near- and longer-term goals.
Based on real experience
Our expertise is grounded, in part, by our own track record advancing DEI, as well as the experiences of our broad ecosystem of internal and external partners and practitioners.
Leader-led
We guide you on both individual and team commitments, make sure marginalized voices are heard, and help you engage line leadership, to foster accountability and propagate change throughout the organization.
How We Can Help
We have a comprehensive approach and set of tools that span every facet of a DEI transformation. We also help you embed DEI in everything you do, across business functions and organizational priorities, from leadership, recruitment and change management to supplier diversity, merger integration, and more.
DEI Strategy
We help you create the case for change, align your leadership team and identify the key areas to focus on. Our broad expertise and experience can help you create a high-performing culture that is truly representative. An initial diagnostic will reveal your strengths and assets, as well as your gaps and challenges. From there we work closely with you to develop a roadmap for reaching your near- and medium-term priorities, while keeping your long-term definition of success firmly in view.
DEI Talent and Culture
Embrace an end-to-end approach to making DEI a core component of your organization. We work with you at every step, from developing a repeatable model for successful recruitment to the role-modeling and behavior change so critical to achieving your desired culture. We’ll help you develop a repeatable playbook for converting target talent pools into successful hires, and create a culture cascade program to evolve the broader culture and provide the necessary reinforcing support.
