Why US² Consulting is Changing the Way We Talk About Belonging

At US² Consulting, we’re driven by a deep commitment to creating spaces where everyone is truly seen, heard, welcomed, and valued. We believe that fostering a sense of belonging is essential for building thriving organizations, cultures, and communities. This belief is at the heart of everything we do.

We approach this work with heart-focused leadership, recognizing the power of personal stories to inspire lasting change. While we champion social justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion, we also recognize that the terms “social justice,” “equity,” “diversity,” and “inclusion” (JEDI) have become increasingly polarized.

To honor our commitment to genuine engagement and meet people where they are, we’ve made the conscious decision to shift away from using the term JEDI in our work. This allows us to:

  • Foster authentic connection: By using more inclusive language, we can avoid triggering negative reactions and create a safe space for open and honest dialogue.
  • Focus on collaborative solutions: We prioritize working together to find practical solutions that promote belonging for everyone, rather than getting caught up in potentially divisive terminology.
  • Drive meaningful change: We believe that everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and respect. By fostering understanding and empathy, we can build stronger, more inclusive communities.

We hold ourselves accountable to the highest standards of excellence in all we do. We believe this shift will help us facilitate transformative change within organizations by:

  • Building stronger networks: We actively communicate, network, and collaborate with all constituents, recognizing the importance of true inclusion in creating lasting change.
  • Empowering individuals and organizations: We empower each other and our clients to be the change they wish to see in the world, fostering a sense of ownership and agency in the journey towards belonging.

We remain dedicated to our mission of uniting society and ensuring that everyone is seen, heard, welcomed, and valued. We invite you to join us on this journey!
