How We Can Help
Let CSI help you become a diverse & inclusive culture by:
Executive Coaching
Getting a handle on why there is a need to address gender diversity and inclusion in an organization can be unclear for many leaders. Others who already understand the benefits of acting can struggle with how to go about it effectively. Executive coaching is your entry point to gain a solid understanding on this issue. It can also create a successful path forward that will not only strengthen your position as a leader, but create a financial return on your investment, all while ensuring a healthier workplace for all.
Diversity & Inclusion Strategies
Based on the the current status on actions undertaken to date, CSI will help your organization to develop a diversity & inclusion strategy to bring you from simply complying with employment equity/human rights legislation to being a diversity & inclusion champion that others aspire to work with and for. There are many different diversity & inclusion tools to choose from and CSI can work with you to determine which ones are best suited to your needs. Beyond developing a strategy with you, it includes such things as leadership training for women and minorities, unconscious bias training, and review of policies and best practices, among other things.
National Sector Initiatives
Interested in making a big impact in your sector? Based on experience with the mining and forestry sectors, CSI will help you create a national sector diversity & inclusion action plan, engaging all stakeholders including public, private, not-for-profit, academia and Indigenous representatives from across your sector. Through this national sector approach, CSI will create a sustainable workplace culture change, improving the image of the sector overall.

Focus Groups
CSI uses focus groups to strategically engage on:
- the root issues of why resistance to D&I is taking place in your organization;
- how to overcome roadblocks to D&I to create success;
- how to create D&I allies in your organization;
- developing inclusive leadership skills and training
Diversity & Inclusion Gap Audit Assessment
Using internationally recognized indicators, CSI will conduct a diversity & inclusion audit in your organization to show where there are gaps in your policies, procedures, and culture that, once addressed, will create a more welcoming workplace for everyone. Establishing baseline information and strategically deciding where to invest your time and resources is the first step to moving your business forward.
The diversity & inclusion gap audit assessment will look at:
- Eliminating gender based pay gaps
- Increasing women’s and minorities’ role in decision making
- Developing bias-free career development including training and promotions
- Achieving family-work balance
- Preventing sexual harassment
- Promoting a non-sexist public image
