We purposefully embrace the power of our culturally diverse global teams, respecting and encouraging unique ways of learning, thinking, and working.
We approach our work and the world with curiosity. We welcome new ideas and ways of thinking with an open and abundant mindset, and treat unexpected outcomes as opportunities to learn more.
We trust and support each other, engaging with empathy and kindness even—and especially—when the way forward is unclear or ambiguities arise.
The work we do requires us to lean into discomfort. We push ourselves to consider multiple perspectives, come together to align on the best path forward, then commit and execute with confidence.
We work together to do our best work and hold ourselves accountable for the results and impact we deliver. Our commitment to continual growth helps our clients realize the full potential of their people and organizations.
We are committed to creating a future where workplaces and the world are genuinely inclusive and fulfilling. We are inspired by our shared belief that lasting, systemic change starts with empowering individuals, who become catalysts for even more growth.
We are an international team of bridge builders dedicated to living our values within and beyond the workplace.
When Ted and Ernie first met, they bonded over their shared experiences navigating between the cultures of the U.S. and Japan. The intercultural field was relatively new then, and they wanted to focus on helping people understand and interact more effectively with people from different backgrounds. In 1990 their work began with the creation of cultural awareness training videos, and 30 years later their efforts have grown into a company with employees around the world dedicated to growing inclusion on a global scale.
Inclusion is part of our DNA as an organization. We take a global, intersectional approach to inclusion, and believe each person has something unique and valuable to offer to the world. By uniting in our similarities, leveraging our differences, and addressing barriers to inclusion, we can create a future where everyone feels a sense of belonging within the workplace and beyond.
