Regarding systemic racism in the US
As a public benefit corporation and Certified B Corp, Ever Better condemns racism in all of its forms. This organization was founded on the principle that businesses can be a force for good, working toward a prosperous economy, sustainable environment and equitable communities.
Our communities will not be equitable until we acknowledge and change the systemic oppression of people of color in the United States. Right now Black folks are experiencing compounded health, economic, and safety risks. And in this moment, the ongoing legacy of police brutality and the inequities of COVID-19 are self-evident and undeniable.
One action we can take to begin the necessary change is to support Black-owned businesses. Here is a list to get started in the Denver metro area. Another action is to educate ourselves. We are currently reading, and recommend, ‘How to Be An Anti-Racist’ by Ibram X. Kendi. Finally, it is important to support anti-racism financially, and to that end we have made an initial donation of $750 to The Movement for Black Lives.

Your team is working hard to make the world a better place.

And yet the world around you has changed. No longer a stable, predictable place, instead every day you face increasing volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity. Old ways of organizing and operating no longer get the job done.
Will you adapt quickly enough to fulfill your mission? Will you be agile in the face of accelerating change? |

You have the power to choose.

Because of your clarity of purpose, you are already a step ahead. Now imagine your team more fully engaged; sharing information freely and learning actively; making better decisions more quickly. Picture less old-school management and more leadership at all levels, building and feeding a culture of fully-empowered decision-making.
