DEI Outdoors Audit and Assessments

If you're interested in improving Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in your organization, we can help. Our assessment will evaluate different areas of your organization using data analysis, surveys, and document reviews. By conducting this audit, we'll develop a roadmap and provide guidance on how to move forward. This will lay the groundwork for our partnership and help us identify areas of opportunity and action.

Internal Assessments

We will evaluate areas like organizational structure, programming, policies & practices, and culture to identify areas of opportunity. Through our assessment, we provide you with a comprehensive report that summarizes our findings and recommendations. We then collaborate with organizations to become a partner in transformation and develop an action plan that's customized to meet your organization's unique needs. This report will serve as a roadmap to help you create belonging within your organization and the communities you engage with.

Internal areas we look at:

  • Organizational Culture

  • Policies

  • Processes

  • Data & Strategy

External Experiential Assessments

DEI Outdoors also offers services to assess the current state of belonging and inclusion for your guests, visitors, and program participants.

Our Approach

  • Comprehensive & Holistic: DEI Outdoors' services go beyond a checklist. We consider the organizational structure, strategy, history, and interactions to provide context to our findings.

  • Collaborative: Our approach at DEI Outdoors is to collaborate closely with organizations to develop an action plan, as we believe you have the most intimate understanding of your work and context. We believe that a prescribed list of action steps is not always the most effective approach, as it can often result in little follow-through. Instead, our strategy is centered around empowering the members of your organization to take ownership of the process, providing guidance on the necessary action steps.

  • Actionable: We work with organizations to provide them with the tools and strategies they need to turn their vision into action. We hold organizations accountable by following up on their action plans and ensuring progress is made.

Pathways to transformation

We recommend a combination of training, coaching, and auditing to identify the root cause of the challenges your organization may be experiencing and allow for ongoing growth, change, and support. Learn more about our comprehensive approach & pathways here.
