We are dedicated to fostering a workplace that is inclusive, diverse, equitable, and accessible (IDEA). This commitment extends to understanding the experiences of all our employees and creating a culture where everyone feels valued and respected. To achieve this, we are partnering with GECI to conduct an IDEA Climate Survey.
We believe that our employees are key stakeholders in creating an inclusive and equitable workplace. Their insights are crucial for identifying gaps in our current culture, programs, and practices, as well as opportunities for improvement.
While participation in the survey is voluntary, we strongly encourage all employees to complete it. A high response rate will ensure we get a clear and accurate picture of our organizational diversity and inclusion climate.
The IDEA Climate Survey has three main objectives:
In addition to the survey, the process may involve focus groups or individual interviews with specific employee groups, such as Black, Indigenous, racialized employees, employees with disabilities, and 2SLGBTQ+ employees (depending on the specific project focus). We take an intersectional approach that acknowledges the interconnectedness of various forms of inequity.
This process is designed to be a collaborative learning experience (co-learning) for everyone involved. By fostering open communication and trust, we aim to build a foundation for implementing positive changes based on the recommendations arising from these consultations.
We are committed to building a more inclusive and equitable workplace for everyone. Your participation in the IDEA Climate Survey is essential to achieving this goal.
Our mission is to empower organizations to embrace these principles through comprehensive assessments, strategic interventions, and transformative learning experiences.
