Consulting
Comprehensive gender equity consulting for organizations ready to embed belonging into policies, processes, and culture.
The gender identity gap costs the US economy $12B per year. (McKinsey & Company, 2022)
We help you bridge this gap.
Training and advocacy programs build awareness—an important foundation. But sustainable belonging requires going deeper. Emerge Collaborations addresses what training alone cannot: we evaluate the structural inequities embedded in your policies, processes, and culture, and provide actionable recommendations that create lasting, enterprise-wide change.
From Understanding to Implementation
Emerge Collaborations partners with leaders ready to translate their understanding of gender identity into enterprise-wide changes in policy, process, and culture.
Leveraging our 360° Gender Equity Playbook, we provide comprehensive, practical recommendations across your entire organization, including C-Suite, People, Marketing, Sales, Engineering, Finance, and IT.

"We partnered with Emerge Collaborations to evaluate the equity of our gender-related policies and practices as outlined in our Employee Handbook, with a focus on supporting our gender-diverse and transgender workforce. Emerge provided numerous valuable recommendations, including policy changes. I appreciated their tiered approach, practical guidance, and the ease with which we could adopt and implement their suggestions. Their efficiency, professionalism, and ability to tailor their support to our needs made the process seamless and enjoyable. Emerge's deliverables were instrumental in accelerating our improvement efforts, and we successfully incorporated many of their recommendations. I highly recommend Emerge Collaborations to any organization looking to enhance belonging and inclusivity for their employees."
