We see a better path forward

Change is constant, and navigating it can be tough. At OQ Strategies, we help you lead your organization forward. We team up with leaders who understand the need to create workplaces where everyone feels valued and included. Using our signature Organization Quotient (OQ) methods, we help you gauge where you currently stand and craft actionable plans to curate a more inclusive culture. We don’t just come up with ideas on paper, we focus on practical solutions that make a real difference. It’s time to rethink how we work, lead, and grow together.

"Our culture has definitely been changed for the better, and I’m confident our team will carry on the work"

Since you left us, we’ve aligned on shared values, undertaken learning and growth projects, and defined an employee journey and built out tools to help us manage and standardize at most of the milestones on that journey. These allow us to more equitably assess candidates and evaluate our employees, leading to better growth paths and clearer expectations. We were even able to have some really brave conversations at our annual retreat a couple weeks ago, relying on our shared values to facilitate those conversations. We are forever changed by the work your team did, and I can’t thank you enough.
"The results exceeded our expectations which led to a second engagement in 2023."

Drs. Seecharan, Greeno, and Shakeir, grounded their work at the outset with [OQ Strategies'] Diagnostic Survey of Institutional Culture and interviews with executive leadership and directors. They combined this with an existing institutional climate survey and focus group data to establish a baseline. [OQ Strategies] then provided actionable recommendations to improve inclusion and belonging for all community members. The engagement also included executive coaching with our leadership team to ensure the team and institution were prepared for executing the plan. [OQ Strategies] helped build commitment among key individuals and removed obstacles to its implementation. The results exceeded our expectations which led to a second engagement in 2023.
"We were also so happy to see that everything either met or exceeded expectations"

I wanted to share that we held the first session yesterday morning. It went smoothly and we received really positive feedback... THANK YOU so much – this would not have been possible without [your] team and we are so grateful for all the work you put into realizing this idea we had! We were also so happy to see that everything either met or exceeded expectations. It was definitely a room full of folks who were eager and excited about this work… we are so glad they had a great experience.
