Our Method →
At the Purple Method, we always start by seeking to understand your unique mission, values, and objectives. Our holistic approach utilizes the four pillars described below to implement trainings, policies, and programs to help you build a safer, more inclusive organization.
REDUCE
We believe the best way to create and maintain a safer workplace is to prevent incidents from occurring in the first place. That’s why the first pillar of our framework focuses on helping organizations take a proactive approach to creating safe and inclusive workplaces. That means: (1) fostering an environment where everyone feels comfortable voicing concerns and (2) effectively training people on your unique policies to create shared norms and expectations.
RESPOND
We know that even the best preventative measures don’t stop all problems from occurring. That’s why the second pillar of our framework helps organizations respond appropriately and effectively when incidents arise. That means: (1) breaking down barriers to reporting misconduct; (2) implementing thorough investigation processes, and (3) taking fair and proportionate corrective action that holds people accountable.
RETHINK
We understand that organizations that prioritize organizational culture also have fewer incidents of misconduct. That’s why the third pillar of our framework zooms out to assess an organization’s commitment to creating a positive workplace climate for everyone, regardless of who they are or where they come from. That means: (1) understanding the intersectional nature of workplace misconduct and (2) establishing programs and policies that allow employees to bring their whole selves to work.
REBUILD
We are deeply aware of the negative effects misconduct can have on individual well-being and organizational health. That’s why the fourth pillar of our framework exists to create a world where people around the globe can come to work every day knowing that they are safe and valued. Together, we can build safer workplaces everywhere, one organization at a time.
It Matters →
Workplace misconduct negatively impacts culture, morale, employee performance, and employee health. Having robust policies and effective trainings will improve organizational understanding of what conduct is acceptable. But not just any fix will do. Our method is designed to help ensure that your policies, practices, and trainings are effective at creating safer, more inclusive organizations where everyone feels valued.
