Get In Touch Our ServicesWe know you believe it’s time for change. Now, let’s make it happen. Workplace Culture Audits Get a nuanced portrait of employee experiences and perceptions so you can build a more inclusive and effective organization. Leaders can fall out of touch with company culture, believing what they wish rather than what is. How can you know the truth if you don’t make a serious effort to find out? Coqual Advisory’s culture audit is the answer. Whether you are looking to build out your DE&I strategy or if your company is facing disruption such as a merger or an accusation of bias, our audit delivers the specific insights you need to create targeted solutions that will get your company where it needs to go.Using a range of survey, interview, and focus group methodologies including our anonymous Insights In-Depth® diagnostic tool, we go far beyond the annual employee survey, and explore critical workplace issues such as:The lived experiences of under-represented employee groups in your companyMotivation levels, sense of purpose, and what your employees value mostPerceptions of meritocracy and opportunities for advancementAccess to networks and career developmentIncidences of harassment, bias, or discriminationTrust in managers, senior leaders, and HR departmentsAwareness of positive leadership behaviors and company role modelsClarity of policies and codes of conduct, and whether you have a speak-up cultureCrisis response and the best path forwardAfter we analyze and synthesize the data, we provide a report, presentation, strategy session, and recommendations for putting findings into action. We’ll provide support as you build out strategy and develop programming. Sponsorship Tools & Programs Under-represented employees need “sponsors,” who are influential advocates. We can show you how. We are the pioneers of sponsorship. Career success doesn’t come from hard work alone. It also requires access to leaders who open doors. Over a decade ago, we wrote “The Sponsor Effect,” published by the Harvard Business Review; a landmark report that identified and named this powerful dynamic.Leaders tend to pass on power, usually unintentionally, to those who remind them of themselves. For more than a decade, Coqual Advisory has been showing companies (and leaders) how to make this intentional: by creating sponsorship relationships across lines of difference and building a pipeline of diverse talent. Eventually, as these programs take root and mature, a culture of sponsorship emerges that needs no formal system and has measurable impact. It examines key processes that determine professionals’ career outcomes; performance evaluations, promotions and pay.Today, our approach is a diversity, equity and inclusion gold standard, used by companies around the globe. Our offerings are fully available in remote formats, including:Workshops to introduce the concepts and benefits of sponsorshipA 6- to 18-month sponsorship program, which may include online assessments, sponsor-protegee matching guidance, coaching, awareness building, and impact measurementSponsor Ready, a five-week online course that can be used as a standalone module or blended with other approaches Awakening and Allyship Based on our landmark research, unparalleled insights and action steps: because it’s time to end systemic racism now. More than 18 years of research, including our 2019 study, Being Black in Corporate America, gives Coqual Advisory unique expertise and capabilities to help companies identify systemic racism and remove barriers that prevent talented black professionals from meeting their ambitions and potential.Coqual Advisory’s three-step approach takes companies through a program for long-term systemic change that addresses both employee culture, behavior change, and bold action to end bias at every level of companies.Audit: We begin with a culture audit that uses our research methodologies to get an accurate picture of your workforce, including how well employees understand systemic racism, privilege, and Black experiences at work. White professionals rarely see the struggles Black professionals so acutely feel. We often discover big gaps in trust that leaders hadn’t realized existed. An audit helps you identify where understanding, resistance, and blind spots lie.Awaken: Coqual Advisory helps leaders begin to talk openly about race and racial bias at work. We offer facilitated dialogues, safe spaces, and conversations with employees to deepen understanding and develop new skills for communication about race. For example:Dialogue on Foundations. This may include historical context, facts about microaggressions, conversation starters, stories from Black company employees, and next steps for action.Dialogue on Practical Actions. We provide key messages for leaders to use when supporting Black colleagues, insights on current company culture, best practices for active allyship, and an open forum for leaders.Act: Coqual Advisory shares best practices for antiracism and help lead strategy sessions. We also deliver recommendations that will vary from company to company; for example, strategies for convening diverse leadership teams to develop prototypes, hackathons, or planning events that can create systemic change. We may recommend impact metrics, new accountability standards for representation, or performance reviews that tie advancement and successful leadership to diversity, equity, and inclusion goals. Leadership Development Tools and trainings for inclusive and authentic leadership. With options ranging from single session to a series, Coqual Advisory offers a range of trainings and tools that help companies creative inclusive cultures and fill skills gaps for rising and senior leaders alike.Inclusive Leadership to ensure team leaders and team members understand how to lift, hear, and include all voices in order to create a culture of belonging.Authentic Leadership to help rising leaders recognize and use their unique assets as a source of strength.Emerging Leader Programs to create momentum for rising leaders and support the professional development and capabilities for underrepresented talent.
