The DiverseCity App is a tool designed to disseminate educate, broaden comprehension and continuously reinforce the conscious practice of inclusion. With The DiverseCity App, employees use a virtual group approach to explore tough topics in a safe and engaging manner.
This position will support the efforts of bringing this new technology to market. We are looking for individuals who are forward thinking, tech-savvy, with a heart for justice.
A Heart for Justice
There has never been a more relevant time to help organizations succeed in their efforts to strengthen diversity, equity, and inclusion. We believe that an organization that prioritizes diversity, equity and inclusion creates an environment that respects and values individual difference along varying dimensions.
In addition, inclusive organizations foster cultures that minimize bias and recognize and address systemic inequities, which, if unaddressed, can create disadvantage for certain individuals. This is not a human resources issue; it is a strategic issue. These efforts should be reflected in organizational mission, vision, and values; incorporated into strategic plans; and cascaded throughout the organization.
Forward Thinking
“Diversity, equity and inclusion programs are a top priority for more companies than ever before, with corporations and organizations spending billions of dollars annually on the cause. Unfortunately, many of these efforts do not have a lasting impact, and some could even end up leading to more division in the organization” – Forbes Magazine, August 2, 2021
Traditional methodologies for delivering DEI training, such as mandatory webinars, going to conferences or public relations campaigns are not enough in these times. The DiverseCity App is solving for the barriers that hinder sustained and integrated change. The particular barriers we address are Safety, Scalability, Sustainability, Engagement and Cost. If this excites your mind and gets you thinking about the possibilities, we want to talk.
Tech Savvy
Our product is new, innovative and meets people where they are. A tech savvy person will see the benefits of using technology to our clients’ and, frankly, the world’s advantage. A tech savvy person will want to tell the world what we have and be excited to bring people to the table.
