W Lawson Company - Creating Diversity in Aging

Our approach to developing an inclusion strategy is guided by a four-step process:

W Lawson Inclusion Strategy Diagram

  • Engagement: Open, reciprocal dialogue with stakeholders that ensures all voices are heard.

  • Assessment: Objective data collection and analysis that give insight into past practices, present sentiments and future trends and opportunities.

  • Shared Learning: Ongoing educational opportunities that increase cultural competency and support stakeholder engagement and momentum.

  • Plan Development: Organized & actionable objectives within a strategic framework that supports organizational growth and furtherance of mission.

Our Services

Initial Engagement

Considering a journey of inclusion or strategizing about how to continue one requires deep listening and buy-in from stakeholders. For new clients or new projects, we recommend an initial engagement that allows both the client and W Lawson to learn about the challenges and opportunities that may exist. An initial engagement is an impactful first step in considering inclusion strategy development, organizational assessment, journey mapping or longitudinal educational opportunities.
