Introduction To Westridge Solutions

At Westbridge Solutions, we’re advocates for data-driven diversity and innovation. We believe that true success is achieved when the brightest ideas and unique perspectives converge to create a dynamic and inclusive mosaic of talent. Our commitment to fostering a global workforce and an inclusive environment sets the stage for organizations to unlock their full potential, driving both profitability and purpose.

Companies are scaling back on their DEI initiatives. As companies get rid of diversity, equity and inclusion programs, the deep-seated problems will remain — and revenue loss will follow. Don’t be that company.

The corporate retreat from Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives is mistakenly seen as a necessary compromise, the real cost of such decisions is often underestimated. As a dedicated professional, you’re acutely aware of the fine balance between navigating political climates, managing economic pressures, and meeting the diverse demands of your workforce. The consequences of not addressing DEI effectively are not just cultural but significantly impact your company’s financial health. At Westbridge Solutions, we specialize in turning these challenges into catalysts for unprecedented growth.

Navigating Through Complex Challenges

Your organization is not alone in its struggle to implement effective DEI strategies amidst:

Political and Economic Pressures: The conservative backlash and the ensuing legal uncertainties discourage proactive DEI efforts. Coupled with economic downturns leading to budget cuts, DEI departments often find themselves first on the chopping block. This not only affects company culture but can lead to significant revenue loss as your organization fails to attract and retain diverse talent.
Balancing Demands: The generational divide within your workforce complicates DEI implementation. With nearly 75% of Gen Z workers prioritizing companies with strong DEI initiatives, and a contrasting disinterest from Baby Boomers, finding a common ground is crucial. Failing to do so risks alienating a significant portion of potential and current employees, leading to increased turnover and associated costs.
Widespread Employee Dissatisfaction: The stark reality that 94% of employees still perceive inequities in pay, performance evaluations, and work assignments underlines the urgent need for comprehensive DEI strategies. This dissatisfaction is a direct threat to employee engagement and productivity, directly correlating with decreased revenue potential.
The Fear Factor: When employees feel compelled to conceal aspects of their identity, it not only undermines individual well-being but also hampers team cohesion and innovation. The diversity of thought is a known driver of business success; without it, companies struggle to keep pace with market demands and lose competitive edge.

Testimonials

I have had the distinct pleasure of working with Berthine in the DE&I and workforce program development ecosystems. Berthine’s precision, attention to detail, and execution excellence make her the perfect collaborative partner in this current season of dynamic and impactful strategic partnerships. As a community and business change agent, Berthine is my choice when the assignment calls for a leadership mindset shift or a change in the company or community narrative.

Deirdra Cox, CPCCommunity & Business Growth Strategist

What can I say about Berthine Crevecoer West and Westbridge Solutions? Not only is she a phenomenal speaker, but she understands diversity and inclusion and delivering it in a manner that everyone can understand. She recently conducted a training for the Gwinnett Youth Commission on Unconscious Bias. The Youth Commission is made up of high school students who are learning to be servant leaders in the local government space. The training was age-appropriate and she held their attention for the entire program. The students engaged in a very thoughtful and passionate conversations on race, ethnicity, diversity and inclusion. I was moved by the feedback from our students after the training that this session helped them understand their own biases but also empowering them to embrace their own identities. One of our student leaders re-capped in her graduation speech that her biggest take away from the entire training, was this this session on unconscious bias and how she learned to embrace her identity instead of trying to fit into society’s box! This is so important for youth as they are developing and learning to lead in a global society. Berthine was great at challenged them to check their personal biases and work to become leaders who are intentional about including everyone. We look forward to having her back next year!

We hired Berthine for our team’s Diversity Equity & Inclusion training in 2020 when I was still at Animation Mentor and I was super pleased with her delightful blend of professionalism and warmth. Not only is she extremely proficient in the topics covered, staying on top of new developemnts, she is also gifted at creating warm inviting spaces that evoke genuine conversation. The training she created for us over several months was wonderfully comprehensive and she also was incredible at helping us when special situations would pop up we needed help with. I would hire her again! Berthine and her team are a gift to this planet – truly!
