SOCIAL IMPACT
Supporting pathways for collective success
We are change-makers. Whether at Ovative or within our communities, we seek to foster a culture inclusive of all dimensions of difference.
Belonging is key to Ovative’s mission to fearlessly unlock potential. We aim to make Ovative, and our broader industry, a place where individuals of all dimensions of difference belong and are free to unlock their own potential. We do so through an intentional focus on representation and inclusion.
REPRESENTATION
Awareness and access matter
More people, especially within BIPOC communities, need to be afforded the access and support to pursue opportunities in this industry. Through strategic partnerships and persistent internal evaluation, we’re committed to bring this change to life—in the small and big moments.
Skills-Based Partnerships
We’re using our skills for good. Our team partners with organizations addressing equitable access to career pathways in business. We seek to maximize their impact by providing our digital marketing expertise, volunteer time, and financial resources.
Equitable Operations
As a data-centric organization, we know that numbers matter. Using data, team feedback, and more, we seek to assess and evolve our internal operations to create an equitable environment that enables and sustains increased representation.

OUR CHAMPIONS OF CHANGE CLIENTS AND PARTNERS
INCLUSION
Diversity is celebrated
Everyone deserves the chance to show up authentically. Differences in our identifies, our lived experiences, and our perspectives in the work make our outputs richer and our impact broader. Through intentional expectations and opportunities, we’re creating the space for this to become reality.
Cultural Agility Education
Curiosity is welcomed here. We provide personal and relational equity learning opportunities that align to Ovative’s Diversity Resource Groups (DRGs). This includes, but isn’t limited to, anti-racism education, monthly identity spotlights, and our Perspective Series.
Diversity Resource Group
Find your community at Ovative! We provide intentional groups of belonging for three historically excluded and/or marginalized groups: LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, and Women.
Our community for all LGBTQIA+ individuals, regardless of where they’re at in their journey.
Our multi-cultural community for all Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) individuals.
Our community for all women to be empowered, connected, and supported.
