How to Lead, Influence, Design and Build A Diversity Program While Driving Results

Often times organizations decided that diversity and inclusion should be added to your desk – or maybe you volunteered to lead the Diversity Initiative. Now you realize just how hard this process is going to be. Without the support and coaching you may not succeed, then this program is for you. 

We help you move beyond the numbers

Our evidence-based experience has shown us that to be successful organizations must be willing to do the hard work, endure failure – because this will not be perfect, and learn from those missteps.

Then there must be a keen focus on educating your leadership team on what it means to be inclusive. Then and only then can you create robust sustainable initiatives.

Finally, there must be real consequences for non-compliance and ignoring opportunities to engage all stakeholders in shifting your diversity numbers.

The Power of Equity

RETHINK EVERYTHING, DISMANTLE THE SILOS, AND MOVE TO EQUITY

We must rethink Diversity, Inclusion, Equality, by focusing on Equity. In this instance, the definition of equity is the degree of investment in diverse employees to achieve parity. After being invited to the table, will diverse groups benefit from the negotiated deals? Organizations can build robust mission statements around diversity; you can issue public-facing statements on inclusion; you can even champion equality, and never move to creating equity for diverse employees or female stakeholders.

Margaret Spence

CEO, Founder C. Douglas & Associates, The Inclusion Learning Lab, and
The Employee to CEO Project

I’ve spent over 35 years inspiring organizations to value talent. Engaging employees in a shared visions, creating inclusive initiatives, and fostering collaboration across silos are the tenets of the work that I do. I began my career advocating for injured and disabled employees to remain in the workforce. In 1999, I wrote a catapulting question on a napkin “what do you want that greater than yourself?” my quest to answer that question lead me to launch C. Douglas & Associates.

The drive to build an equitable workplace for women and diverse individuals brought me full circle to found The Employee to CEO Project, keenly focused on advancing women into C-Suite Leadership and to launch The Inclusion Learning Lab.
