A few weeks ago, we had the incredible opportunity to present at SHRM Inclusion, where we reintroduced the concept that Inclusion is an ecosystem—a set of interdependent parts working together to create a thriving environment. We also celebrated an exciting milestone as our founder hosted a book signing for Do Recruit, and we’re thrilled to share that we almost sold out of all copies!
During our presentation, we highlighted the Alphabet Audit, a signature framework and assessment tool we’ve been piloting since September 2022. Organizations across the country are using it to take a comprehensive approach to inclusion by examining how it shows up in daily interactions, decision-making, and opportunities for growth across all roles and levels.
The Alphabet Audit evaluates key areas like:
⏩ Accessibility: Are all employees able to fully participate?
⏩ Opportunity: Is there a fair and equitable path to growth?
⏩ Engagement: Are diverse perspectives driving innovation?
We also introduced NEXT, the evolution of inclusion—moving beyond metrics to create ecosystems that are Nurturing, Empowering, Expansive, and Transformative.
We know some believe DEI is dead, but we disagree. The old ways may no longer work as effectively, but the next way is about transformation—turning inclusion into a tangible, impactful reality where every voice is heard, valued, and empowered to thrive.
Thank you to everyone who joined us at SHRM Inclusion, supported our founder during the book signing, and contributed to this important conversation. A special thank you to our publisher, The Do Book Co., for ensuring everything was perfect on-site.
Together, let’s commit to learning our ABCs and taking inclusion to the NEXT level! You can schedule time to learn how to use The Alphabet Audit at your organization .
