Our Commitment to Diversity and Inclusion
At Access, we see the value of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI). Our DEI focus helps increase diversity in our talent, improve and sustain employee satisfaction, team dynamics, and financial success.
As we grow our diversity our goal is to make all staff feel included, valued, and treated fairly regardless of their identity. Creating an inclusive organization allows staff to show up as their best, authentic selves and do great work for clients.
Dr. Bentley Gibson, the founder of The Bias Adjuster, joined the Access team as our DEI expert consultant to coach Access staff to recognize biases, combat those biases, and develop strategies and tactics to foster a truly inclusive work environment.
Our DEI efforts start with data. Our staff participates in climate assessments and engagement surveys to share their feedback and experiences. This data is used to inform programming, learning, and cultural shifts. Following learning experiences, employees create their own individualized action plans in which they develop commitments to continue reducing bias in their personal and professional lives. Staff is also given the opportunity to participate in one-on-one DEI consultations to customize their specific DEI actions and continue addressing these topics.
Dr. Gibson creates safe spaces for ongoing courageous conversations for our staff, develops custom content for staff to help adjust biases individually and collectively, partners with HR to audit and improve talent management and recruiting to attract and retain diverse talent, counsels leadership with insights rooted in data, and so much more.
