We begin with an assessment process that offers an honest, data-informed view of what’s working, what isn’t, and what needs to evolve to move your organization forward—ensuring that equity and belonging are not afterthoughts but integral to how your culture is defined and developed. We review the current state of your overall organizational culture with a focus on diversity and inclusion to identify strengths, opportunities for improvement, key business drivers, and determine areas of focus / strategic priorities. A core outcome of this process is a shared understanding among key stakeholders—including senior leadership and the DEI leadership team—of the most pressing DEIB-related challenges and opportunities. It also builds the commitment necessary to drive meaningful change, resulting in a clearly defined DEIB strategy and roadmap for action.

Through this process, we assess and provide insights into:

• Current cultural norms, values, and unwritten rules that shape how work gets done—and how these are experienced across different identity groups and levels
• The degree of alignment between these norms and your organization’s stated mission, values, and DEIB commitments.
• Employee perceptions regarding leadership, communication, collaboration, psychological safety, inclusion, and trust.
• Cultural strengths that foster engagement, innovation, performance, and retention—including inclusive leadership practices and equitable systems.
• Pain points and opportunities for improvement in all talent life-cycle processes including talent sourcing, talent acquisition, onboarding, talent management, employee development, career progression and succession planning.
• Organizational readiness for cultural evolution, with attention to how receptive the environment is to inclusive change efforts.
