Cultivating Inclusive Leaders & Effective Cultures That Drive Business Outcomes
CLIENTS WE HAVE PROUDLY SERVED
WE ARE…
The Atkins Impact Consulting Firm, your strategic partner in driving transformative change through the cultivation of equitable, inclusive, and high-performing organizational cultures.
We equip and empower committed mid-size and large companies across the globe to embrace equity and inclusion as the right thing to do and leverage it as powerful enablers of exponential business growth.
Let’s be honest, companies around the world are experiencing program nauseum, a competitive and volatile talent market, failing mandatory training that did not yield the desired behaviors, and unmet business outcomes; organizations are now faced with a pivotal decision on their journey towards an inclusive culture where all employees can thrive.
Is DEIB a moral case or a business case?
OUR BELIEFS…
We believe companies should not be grappled with making a choice between the moral case and sound business strategy. In fact, our work is grounded in the philosophy of Organizational Effectiveness that is anchored in Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging being seamlessly embedded as a company’s purpose driver and business enabler.
The harmonious relationship and integration of the two is the cornerstone of cultivating inclusive cultures, organizational effectiveness, and business success.
We believe and know organizations achieve their business objectives and cultures become effective, equitable, and inclusive when DEIB is “not a thing” or a project. We partner with you to seamlessly integrate DEIB throughout the employee experience and talent lifecycle.
DE&I is not what we do, it’s how we do it.
“When we lead with humanity, and empathy and embrace authentic individuality, then and only then will organizations experience unparalleled innovation, unprecedented results, and unwavering employee loyalty.”
Shayla N. Atkins, CEO of The Atkins Impact Consulting Firm
