Join the movement for workplace equity.
We create innovative and engaging learning experiences that produce inclusive, equitable, and diverse workplaces.
Focused on how individual and institutional biases are formed and, in turn, affect the workplace, Step Up provides a framework for positive change.
1.
Every person has value
Each person has value to contribute and we must address barriers and historical factors that have led to unfair conditions for marginalized populations.
2.
Diverse talent pools are stronger
Organizations and countries that tap into diverse talent pools are stronger and more efficient.
3.
Reflect your diverse customer base
Organizations will better serve their customers if they reflect the diversity of their market base.
4.
Diverse teams lead to better outputs
Mathematical modeling & case studies show diversity leads to increased productivity; diverse groups of problem solvers outperform groups of the ‘best’ individuals at solving problems.
Commit to creating equity for all
Your attitude and perspective make your world what it is. Commit to taking the steps necessary every day to create an equitable society.

Until we start talking about it...
We can read about bias, diversity, equity, but until we start talking about it – together – we’ll never be a just & equitable city.
