Alinea Group’s DEI Board Uses Paradigm Reach to Build More Inclusive Strategies

Alinea Group — a collection of innovative restaurants that focus on modernist cuisine —  embraced their employees’ passion for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and wanted to launch a DEI initiative that spanned their restaurants.

A DEI Journey

To understand what would be most impactful, they created a DEI Board composed of employees from different departments — both front and back of house — that worked to define what deep DEI work within the restaurant industry could look like.

After discussing different DEI solutions, the Paradigm Reach platform came to the forefront. The committee appreciated that Reach was a solution employees could use to educate themselves about DEI asynchronously – critical to an organization where employees have very different roles, and very different hours.
