Diversity Is The Superpower!

That Equity, Equality and Emotional Intelligence (commonly known as Emotional Quotient, or EQ) are values that every individual and company should champion to create real, sustainable change and foster a more inclusive world of work. A diverse and inclusive workforce results in greater innovation, creativity, profitability, and competitive advantage. If we all champion these values and help each other, everyone wins.

After consulting with fast-growing tech companies on their DE&I initiatives, there was a will to do more, but they did not know-how. This is where EQ comes in. Our Founder spent the last 16 years in HR tech& recruiting, climbing from the front line to Executive & CEO inside a Fortune 500 company focused on online recruitment & digital transformation and a prominent Microsoft Services Executive Board position. He’s witnessed only a surface level evolution of access to meaningful and life-changing jobs, especially for people of color. He was fortunate enough to build relationships and capabilities that propelled his career. After hearing this from new companies and witnessing a lack of representation at the top felt the time was now to focus on providing the required access to capable, diverse talent to thrive
