Traditional DEI strategies rely on concrete steps to change an organization’s operations and practices, but the trainings and checklists designed to move an organization toward its DEI goals are insufficient and can leave leaders feeling overwhelmed with the process.

A data-driven process that helps your organization identify where it currently stands in its DEI journey and the opportunities for continued learning, growth, and change 

We approach assessment and evaluation with inclusion to ensure your goals will truly meet the needs of your organization.

From focus groups to mixed method approaches that include web-based surveys, we partner with you through the entire process.

DEI Journey Mapping

A multi-step engagement that guides an organization through a highly visual process of creating a strategic DEI plan with a shared vision and accountability measures across the organization

We offer sessions that begin with asking who needs to be at the table and support leadership in prioritizing and developing short-, medium-, and long-term goals.

We guide you through a phased model process to create a map that accounts for the need to flow with change based on needs and outline measurable outcomes and actionable steps to attain identified goals.

Upskill your internal experts

We help build a group of experts within your organization to steward the DEI process through implementation and evolution and minimize reliance on outside consultants for more sustainable change. We do this by strengthening their facilitation skills with an emphasis on sitting with discomfort and engaging your employees in the thinking and feeling parts of DEI work.
