A letter from our
founder
As a US-born daughter of Filipino immigrants living in Spain since 2010, I hear stories like mine every day. Stories from other “multihyphenates” whose lived experiences already span diverse ages, abilities, races, ethnicities, genders, nationalities, religions, sexual orientation, neurodiversity, locations and languages. Stories from our client partners and our team of remote collaborators. These are the folks who embrace “both/and” > “either/or”. Who have learned to navigate between worlds, bridge those gaps, and show a way forward for others. This mindset is exactly what we need as we reimagine our remote and hybrid workplaces.
I believe that companies that embed this same cultural agility in their DNA will truly thrive in the future of work. To continue to attract the best people, harness their diverse perspectives, and unlock your teams’ performance, my team and I help you turn complexity into effective collaboration. We look forward to helping your workplace mirror and move with our changing world.
Sincerely yours,
Kay Fabella
CEO of Inclusion in Progress
About Inclusion in Progress
Whether it’s supporting leaders communicating with multicultural team members, auditing your remote connectivity practices, or taking your company DEI strategy global, here’s what you can expect working with us at Inclusion in Progress:
One inch wide,
one mile deep
Rather than offering our services to everyone, we only work with eight client partners each year. Because we value long-term relationships which allow us to support your company as your culture evolves. We offer bespoke strategies designed to help your teams perform at their best, no matter where they are.
It’s not wrong,
it’s different
We’re here to diagnose the barriers to connectivity and collaboration, not divide and decide whose way is “more right”. We do this by dissecting the data we gather, listening to your people, and diagnosing culture and context (native languages, non-work roles, virtual vs. in-person) in our solutions.
What got us here,
won’t get us there
Our culture
Walk your talk
Showing up consistently for ourselves, for one another, and for our client partners is key to integrity. We don’t just advise and consult others, we put our work into practice every day.
Collide with compassion
When worldviews clash, we don’t raise clenched fists. We ask ourselves, “What can we learn together?” with open hands and ears. We can speak hard truths with respect.
Pause to progress
We don’t need to strong-arm our way to a solution at the expense of ourselves. Complex challenges require time to research, reflect, and reimagine future outcomes. Pauses benefit us and our clients in the long run.
Dare to dream
As a multicultural team from non-majority backgrounds, we know that most workplaces weren’t designed with us in mind. So we allow ourselves to imagine, “Wouldn’t it be great if…?” and apply those ideas regularly to our work.
