Consulting

Not every organization is able to have IDEA expertise in-house. That’s ok. We invite you to consider us your in-house experts from this point forward. We’ll get to know you and your business so well you’ll forget we’re not right in your building. Once we understand your objectives, we’ll put together a plan and recommendations about how we can go about meeting them.

Some of the consulting services we offer are:

  • Conduct a baseline internal assessment
  • Policies
  • Processes (i.e., recruitment, total rewards, outreach, data measurement,  accommodations,  etc.).
  • Support in the creation of ERGs and Councils
  • Governance
  • Toolkits
  • Collect, store, and manage workplace demographic data
  • Analyze and present compiled data
  • Provide recommendations on areas of opportunity

is more important now than ever to attract and retain outstanding talent.
Understanding successful recruitment practices that are inclusive is not just a “nice to have” – it is a must. In order for us to foster innovation and increase our bottom line, we must commit to hiring individuals from various backgrounds that can introduce new thoughts and perspectives.
