“I truly believe that diversity, inclusion and belonging isn’t about fixing people to fit a system, and instead about changing the system to accept people.
I love that TRIEC’s LIFT program is two-pronged, which is rare in talent development: supporting newcomer employees with achieving advancement and also equipping people leaders who have so much power in someone’s trajectory at work to intentionally include them.
Partnering with TRIEC has been a catalyst for culture change at our organization, as it offered an immediate action to support employees, and also sparked a movement of additional conversations on how to keep newcomer inclusion top of mind.”
Associate Vice President, Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging (DIB) – Strategy & Integration, Canadian Tire
“Our team had the privilege of engaging in the LIFT training program, and it was an exceptional experience.
Despite being fully virtual—a format that can be challenging—the session was remarkably engaging, creating a safe space where participants felt comfortable sharing openly and vulnerably.
The team not only appreciated the insightful content but also found the learnings highly applicable to their roles.
Adding to the program’s value, LIFT provided our People & Culture team with a comprehensive report on session learnings, equipping us with actionable insights for future implementation.
We highly recommend the LIFT program to any organization committed to fostering growth, trust, and meaningful connections within their teams!”
