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
