Greg DeShields Consulting: Your Partner in Business Growth
Our Consulting offers comprehensive workplace culture assessment services to help organizations across industries achieve their goals and foster inclusive cultures. Assessments are tailored to meet each organization's unique needs and challenges, providing insights and a roadmap for positive change, inspiring a future where diversity is celebrated, equity is the norm, and inclusion is a given.
An assessment begins with a collaborative effort, during which we thoroughly review the organization's current policies, practices, and culture. This includes conducting interviews with key stakeholders, reviewing relevant documentation, and analyzing quantitative data. We believe "your valuable insights and experiences are crucial for gaining a better understanding of the organization's landscape."
We then utilize qualitative and quantitative assessment tools to identify strengths, gaps, and areas for improvement within the organization's framework. This may include surveys, focus groups, and cultural audits to gather employee feedback and assess the organization's climate.
Once the assessment phase is complete, we provide a comprehensive report outlining our findings and recommendations for enhancing organizational belonging. This report includes actionable strategies and best practices tailored to the organization's needs, goals, and benchmarks for measuring progress over time.
