Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
Our mission at Risch Results is to help our clients build diverse and dynamic teams. We believe that we cannot have equitable communities until we work to build equitable organizations. That’s why we cast a wide net in every search, reaching a diverse pool of qualified candidates for each position we fill.
Our DE&I Capabilities
We help organizations mitigate bias from the hiring process. Unconscious biases can often impact where we look for talent, the people we choose to interview, and those we eventually hire. We help leaders become aware of potential unconscious biases so their organizations can benefit from the innovation that comes from diverse ideas, experiences, and backgrounds.
We train our own team and clients in these best practices, giving careful thought to each part of the talent acquisition process. We evaluate job descriptions, resume reviews, interviews, and more to ensure inclusion.
We also share what we’ve learned through a variety of engagements:
