Our Approach

We believe consulting is more than just giving advice. We look for ways to reframe what is holding back opportunities for true equitable experiences. To change words like 'us' and 'them' to collective words like 'we'. To turn 'aha!' moments into a movement. Our relationship-focused approach to consulting aims to make your IDEA efforts intentional, inclusive, and impactful for your organization.

If you have ever asked yourself, 'Who do I want to be? And What do I want my world to be?' We would hope the response would include to be equitable. That you desire to build workplaces where everyone feels welcomed, respected, and able to contribute fully and authentically. We can help you on the journey to do just that. Let's talk.

Let's Get Started

Cook Ross is now BE Equitable

In a world of tick-a-box trainings and quick fixes, we at Be Equitable are going after something more satisfying -- we’re here for the transformations. For the forward thinkers and future leaders who know the journey is long and are still ready, we see you and we want to partner with you.

Let’s go beyond the buzzwords to create workplaces that work for people of all races, ethnicities, identities, and abilities. It won’t be neat. And it certainly won’t be simple. Our BE team is ready and committed to get it done.

As we enter this next chapter of our story, we invite you to BE bold, BE inclusive, and BE authentic to the vision you have for yourself and your organization. And together we can create workplaces that are just and equitable for all.
