Featured Podcast
Empowering Futures: Preparing Visually Impaired Children for School and Beyond
#EnvisionRISE Podcast | We are joined by Meghan Klassen and Jenn Taylor of the Anchor Center for Blind Children, a facility that supports visually impaired children. Meghan and Jenn share with host Staci Hegarty how the Anchor Center prepares children for the next steps in their education, laying the foundation for career readiness and independent living skills.
Children with visual impairments learn essential skills through a play-based approach and bond with their families. The transition process from Anchor Center to elementary school is carefully planned, ensuring continuity of support and maximizing independence. The conversation also touches on creating inclusive work environments for visually impaired adults.
Visit Envision RISE to learn how our evolutionary platform helps companies create a powerful integration and understanding of the relationship between the organization and the workforce. Envision RISE empowers your people to drive change and innovation through the methods of Organizational Change Management (OCM), Human Resource Management (HRM), and Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DE&I).

MISSION
Envision RISE
To evolve into an environment where all people are encouraged to draw upon and voice their unique experiences, perspectives and backgrounds.
Success today and in the future requires equipping and developing leaders to navigate issues and challenges resulting from an ever-increasing global and diverse work environment.
Effective sustainability strategies must also be aligned with local cultures. Leaders at all levels must understand the expectations and be held accountable to help create and sustain a culture of equality where all individuals can advance and thrive.


Business transformation can be disruptive, but the True North DE&I Actualization Model offers a proven pragmatic methodology which guides decision making, minimizes disruption, and lowers risk.
This is achieved through inclusive interaction with all stakeholders at all levels. This philosophy requires direct, transparent, and sometimes challenging discussions, which also builds trust between EnvisionRISE experts and client staff – a true partnership.
We will align the tangible and intangible elements of the organizational ecosystem.
- Tangible – people, processes, infrastructure
- Intangible – motivations, relationships and culture
