Build Inclusive Relationships & Maximize Your Role

Welcome

You want to DO something, but knowing WHAT to do can be hard. After you’ve researched, explored, and talked until you’re blue in the face, change must occur. In order to connect the human with change, we must experience what it is we are trying to cultivate within our lives.

In addition, we have to figure out how to build inclusive relationships from an organic place. This is not training. Experiences only, because after all, it is the best teacher.

Empower Belonging.

There are many keys.

Each owns a specific sound.

Each has its own place...

where it must exist for harmonies to be born.

build-relationships-in-workplace — Inclusion Experiences for Teams

Does your team need a boost? Teams who have built real relationships are much more engaged and productive. In school we are rarely taught how to build intentional relationships and be truly kind. This seems like a simple place to start, but we first have to unlearn some things that have created walls that hinder our overall progress. The R-squared method helps us impact change through true connection with team members who are helping us impact that change. These experiences are designed to create true connections between participants, so relationships can evolve. Experiences are available in-person, online, and in hybrid-format that provides the best of both worlds.

Dr. Amber R. Smith

CEO, Founder, and Lead Consultant at Jordan Atwater

Dr. Amber R. Smith is the CEO, Founder, and Lead Consultant at Jordan Atwater. She is a true believer that no matter your background, sexual orientation, religion, or race, we can all understand how to live, love, and learn well beyond our differences. This is why she created her in-depth, thought-provoking, and successful process called the R-Squared Method, which simplifies the concept of inclusion.

Through studying for her Ph.D. In Industrial Organizational Psychology, being the Vice President for Inclusion and Equity/ Chief Inclusion & Equity Officer for the University of Indianapolis, and leading a 10-million-dollar program that helps improve the academic performance and college experience for African-American students, she has gained extensive knowledge and understanding of inclusivity and equity that she would love to share with you and your organization.

A Life in the arts

Smith credits her comfort in ambiguity and willingness to embrace the grey, as being directly tied to her background in performing arts. Music, film, theatre, and dance have allowed her a unique perspective and creative tools to build dynamic experiences. Smith has led multiple organizations through their inclusion and equity processes resulting in more authentic, non-discriminatory relationships within the workplace. Much of this guidance fuses artistic elements that create resonance with us all.

Smith truly enjoys exploring better ways to understand inclusion and equity. She not only has a career in the subject, but she is truly passionate about bringing people of diverse backgrounds together. She is passionate about helping your organization become a more cohesive, inclusive, and united workplace.
