Delivering training programs and workshops that educate employees, educators, and executives on the importance of inclusion, how to implement it, and the latest in accessibility practices. 

Helping organizations integrate assistive technologies, such as screen readers, text-to-speech software, and ergonomic workstations, to better support employees and students with disabilities. 

Providing long-term consulting to ensure organizations not only implement inclusive practices but maintain and evolve them as technology and regulations progress. 

As industry leaders in DEI, we offer tailored consulting solutions that empower businesses to set new standards for inclusivity. Our services are structured to make DEI a continuous journey, with our retainer-based model providing 87% better decision-making outcomes and 5.4 times higher employee retention rates for clients who prioritize inclusive practices.

Choosing the retainer option with Inclusive Business Development (IBD) offers businesses a strategic advantage by providing ongoing, consistent access to specialized inclusion expertise. Here are some of the benefits:

1. Continuous Improvement & Accountability: With IBD's guidance on a retainer, businesses have a dedicated partner who can support them in setting and meeting realistic inclusion goals, tracking progress, and adjusting strategies as needed to ensure accountability.
2. Cost-Efficiency: Retainers provide a predictable, ongoing cost structure, helping businesses avoid the higher expenses often associated with piecemeal consultations or reactive problem-solving. This can be more cost-effective than hiring full-time inclusion specialists in-house, especially for smaller organizations.
3. Up-to-Date Knowledge & Compliance: Inclusion standards and regulations evolve rapidly. IBD’s retainer clients benefit from timely updates on these changes, ensuring they stay compliant with legal requirements and aligned with the latest best practices in accessibility and inclusion.
4. Tailored Expertise: By being on a retainer, IBD can offer a more personalized service. The team builds an intimate understanding of the client's unique culture, industry, and specific challenges, allowing for customized, proactive solutions rather than one-size-fits-all advice.
5. Crisis Prevention & Support: Inclusion challenges can quickly escalate without the right guidance. A retainer provides businesses with immediate access to IBD’s expertise during critical moments, reducing the risk of costly missteps and ensuring challenges are handled professionally and effectively.
6. Long-Term Partnership: Unlike one-off consultations, a retainer fosters a long-term partnership that is invested in the client’s success. This continuity helps IBD provide more strategic, sustainable support and allows businesses to create an authentic, inclusive environment that evolves over time.
7. Enhancing Innovation: By choosing the retainer option, businesses don’t just address inclusion reactively but also embed it as a foundational aspect of their innovation strategy, in line with the vision for inclusion as a catalyst for empathy and equity.

Choosing the retainer option with IBD is a commitment to a deeper, more consistent partnership that aligns with the values of a B Corporation, focusing on long-term, sustainable impact over short-term fixes.
