DEI in the workplace

 

The Challenge

In today’s fast-changing and competitive environment, many organizations struggle with retention, miscommunication, and building the diverse, engaged, and successful teams they need.

The True Colors methodology is a foundation for building an effective diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) program with lasting outcomes and benefits. Our proven approach to understanding the broader lens of diversity can be customized for organizations of all types: Corporate, government, nonprofit, military, education, healthcare, and more.

True Colors is the first step towards inclusion. The methodology complements other programs and will help build and foster an environment of inclusion, and a sense of belonging that empowers more thoughtful leaders and leverages the overall effectiveness of diverse teams.  

True Colors enlightens organizations on why people behave and react the way they do and helps develop a shared language, helping to support your DEIB initiatives. 

With True Colors as your team’s guide, your employees will increase their self-awareness, improve their communication skills, and elevate their empathy for others — knowledge that can be utilized in both their personal and professional lives.

This is where real innovation and success unfolds.


Our Evidence-Based Approach

The True Colors proprietary methodology distills complex temperament theory into practical tools and actionable programs. We use colors — Orange, Gold, Green, and Blue — to differentiate the four primary personality types and illuminate how these types best interact with each other.

By helping individuals better understand themselves and others, our evidence-based approach unwraps the “why” behind organizational issues.

As a result, True Colors improves organizational effectiveness by providing programmatic solutions to today’s pressing challenges.
