Hi Jenny,

I'm an EOSI that leads a company, Flexability LLC, focused on equity at work. I am happy to engage in a conversation with you about DEI as part of your V/TO. In short, we get agreement on the meanings and metrics for Diversity (who's invited to the table), Equity (activity/policy based intention) and Inclusion (impact of activities/policies on employees). I can be reached at either nancy.geenen@eosworlwide.com90 or njgeenen@flexability.com86 if you want to discuss further. As you know, as goes the leadership, so goes the rest of the organization. 

Warmly,

Nancy

Those are tough conversations but everyone will be better off if you don't shield others from your expectations.

Other things I think are common for us little guys is not having mature data. Everything in our ERP system was cobbled together... (More)

@Jenn88 - there is a Facebook group called EOS Self-Implementers Unite! and a lot of the members are Integrators. The best resource I've found so far is Rocket Fuel University (www.rocketfueluniversity.com156). It's a community of Visionaries and Integrators that do exactly what your talking about. In addition, there a live monthly Q&A call facilitate by Mark Winters (co-author of Rocket Fuel). There will also be some exciting news related to this coming out soon. There is also a group called the Integrator Community (https://authenticbrand.com/eos-integrator-user-group/120) that has a monthly meeting with a guest speaker and then breakout rooms that are facilitated...
