SDIG experts are professionals with the ability and experience to help clients address all their diversity and inclusion needs.
Together for a Fairer Future
Diverse Voices, Shared Vision.
We are clearly on the frontier, employing the power of current research on diversity and inclusion to address the needs of our clients. SDIG professionals usually begin our work by connecting and collaborating with our clients to perform diagnostic work and ascertain the diversity and inclusion issues concerning their work. It is always our priority to provide our clients with state-of-the-art tools that aid them in ascertaining their SWOT, which in turn optimizes the quality of their services to be second to none in their industry.
Our approach to meeting our clients' needs is simple
First, we conduct a situation analysis, a process that focuses on working collaboratively with our clients to explore and ascertain past, current, and productive future potential via our state-of-the-art diagnostics work.
Second, armed with that critical information stemming from careful analysis of the SWOT, we employ the research and data gleaned to set goals and strategies for accomplishing the goals, as well as imbue assessment mechanisms into the process. Assessment is a critical component of the pillars necessary to guarantee continuous and sustained improvement for our clients. We believe in the power of assessment to foster continuous improvement, which fits nicely into our founder’s vision that “Good is never enough where better is possible.” We therefore utilize the power of current research and the brilliant wisdom of SDIG professionals to leverage past experiences, current knowledge, and research to shape the future trajectories of our work as we sustain our brand. The quality of our work is plain to see, and that is why we are considered one of the best in the diversity and inclusion global industry.
Systemic diversity professionals consult both within and outside the United States on issues of diversity and inclusion, including working collaboratively with clients on their diversity and inclusion situation analysis and employing the data to consult them on best practices, such as setting goals, policies, strategies for implementation, as well as imbuing assessment mechanisms to ensure continuous improvements. Furthermore, in support of our clients through traditional and online services, we provide training and mentorship programs with the goal of guiding them through meaningful innovation. This includes providing them with the tools for cross-cultural communication competencies that will serve as the foundation for success.
Corporate Diversity and Inclusive Leadership Training
Systemic Diversity and Inclusive Corporate Training is inclusive. It embodies training for all members of our clients’ organizations, beginning with the corporate executive leadership at the highest level, followed by similar training for leadership at functional levels such as Vice President of Human Resources, Vice President of Marketing, and Vice President of Research and Development. Finally, general training is provided for all members of our clients on the critical need for a systemic diversity and inclusive workforce. In other words, we employ a systemic approach, meaning our training touches people in every aspect of the organization, with a clear roadmap of each individual’s responsibility in their varied spaces in the organization.
our approach
Why our approach to diversity and inclusion training is successful.
At Systemic Diversity and Inclusion Inc., we leave no stone unturned in our diagnostic of clients’ critical needs for diversity and inclusion.
Fundamentally, we start with diagnostic work in coordination and collaboration with our clients. In that initial ‘get acquainted’ phase, we begin with honest and truthful conversations about our clients’ needs based on two dimensions: first, the exploration of individual belief formation processes, and second, the group belief formation process.
SDIG’s approach is based on the belief that whether discussing individuals or groups, one’s belief system is a function of their experiences. It suffices to conclude that both individual and group behaviors are driven by their belief systems. In other words, we believe that one’s belief system is a function of individual experiences that embody both good and bad, the accumulation of which drives predictable behavior and performance.
Our Beliefs & Values
We believe that understanding the process of belief formation and how it informs behavior is essential for effective leadership training. We recognize that the power of sharing our collective knowledge, experiences, and efforts is unparalleled and often underutilized in the pursuit of social justice. Without honest, safe, courageous, two-way, and mutually respectful conversations—acknowledging that our individual experiences differ yet are of equal value—we will not be able to meaningfully learn from one another or change for the better.
