While we’re here to help organizations and professionals with their ADEI journey, doing so requires we first talk about “professionalism”.
The concept of being “professional” has been used for years to create a gap between what’s allowed and encouraged in the work space and what’s not (aka promoting whiteness) and making it the standard and norm.
When we talk to and about professionals, we’re talking to job holders who seek to grow and be seen not by “fitting in” but through being environments that cultivate belonging, value differences, and seek to increase belonging, not to check a box, but because ADEI makes organizations better from values, inclusion, and profitability standpoints.
Now that we’ve made that clear…
You may have heard that
“The best time to start ADEI work was yesterday. The second best time is now.”
And good news is, if you’re willing to have real conversations about power to create sustainable change, you’re in the right place.
At The Shift, we work with professionals, leaders, and organizations to create sustainable change in individuals and organizations that create more equity in the office and, in turn, the world.
