Beyond Diversity Training: Building Trust in Real Time

Formal training is a starting point, not a solution. At Getting to We, we’ve seen again and again that the true work of inclusion happens afterward—when people turn awareness into action.

Trust is built in real time: when leaders follow through on promises, when colleagues give honest feedback respectfully, when accountability is practiced with care. These everyday interactions create the culture that training can only begin to describe.

Inclusion doesn’t live in workshops; it lives in relationships. It grows when organizations commit to transparency, active listening, and shared responsibility.

The practice of equity is not theoretical—it’s lived, moment by moment.

Our work focuses on helping organizations sustain that practice long after the slides close—transforming intention into impact, and awareness into action.
