Building a More Inclusive Future: LearnUpon’s 2025 DIB Program
At LearnUpon, we believe that diversity, inclusion, and belonging (DIB) are more than just corporate initiatives—they’re essential to our success and the well-being of our team.
As we look toward 2025, we’re more committed than ever to developing our DIB program. Today, we’re excited to introduce our 2025 initiatives. With a mission to foster a sense of belonging and ensure that all employees feel included, we’re aligning our efforts with our commitment to diversity as a core business goal. To achieve this, we’re embracing four key themes, each designed to ensure every individual at LearnUpon feels valued, respected, and empowered to thrive.
1. Celebrating Race and Ethnicity
We’re deeply proud of the rich diversity of backgrounds that make up our team. We believe that our differences are what make us stronger, and we’re committed to fostering an environment where every individual feels seen, heard, and valued.
Throughout Q1, we’re dedicating time to honoring and celebrating various races and ethnicities, creating space for education, open discussions, and personal storytelling. By learning from each other’s experiences and perspectives, we not only grow as individuals but also strengthen our sense of community.
Together, we can build a workplace where diversity is celebrated, and everyone feels a true sense of belonging.
2. Empowering Women @ LU
We recognize that the voices and experiences of women are essential to our culture and our continued success. Their perspectives shape who we are as a company and help us grow stronger together.
Throughout this theme, we’re focusing on raising awareness around the unique challenges women face, with a special emphasis on allyship and women’s health. Through meaningful learning opportunities, open discussions, and heartfelt conversations, we aim to not only support but uplift the women at LearnUpon and beyond.
Our goal is to create an environment where women feel heard, valued, and empowered to thrive, knowing they have the support of their colleagues in overcoming the obstacles they face. We believe that by fostering understanding and solidarity, we can build a workplace where everyone has the opportunity to succeed.
3. I Belong @ LU
Belonging is at the very heart of our culture. It’s more than just a value; it’s the foundation that connects us all. This theme is about celebrating every single person who makes up the LearnUpon family and recognizing that our individual, unique qualities are what make us stronger together.
We’ll take time to reflect on what true belonging means and how it shapes our experiences both at work and beyond. We’ll share personal stories, foster open conversations, and create opportunities for reflection. Above all, we want every team member to feel empowered to bring their authentic self to work, knowing they are not only welcomed but celebrated for who they are.
By nurturing this sense of belonging, we’re ensuring that each person knows they are an indispensable part of our team, and that together, we can achieve more than we ever could alone.
4. Connecting Across Cultures
With a team that spans the globe, we have a wonderful opportunity to learn from each other and celebrate the vibrant cultures that make up LearnUpon. Through sharing stories, exchanging knowledge, and fostering a culture of inclusive language, we will strengthen the bonds between us, building deeper connections and a greater appreciation for the diverse perspectives that each of us brings to the table.
Together, we’ll create an even more supportive and understanding environment where our shared experiences make us stronger.
How We’ll Bring These Themes to Life
To make these themes truly meaningful, we are committed to celebrating them in a way that brings us all together. Through shared learning experiences, open conversations, local volunteering efforts, and team events, we aim to create an environment where everyone feels valued and included.
Whether it’s a workshop that sparks new ideas, a panel discussion that promotes thought-provoking dialogue, or a community initiative that encourages us to give back, we want every employee to feel inspired, engaged, and connected.
Diversity, inclusion, and belonging are not just initiatives or checkboxes to us—they are deeply embedded in our values and are essential to who we are as a team. We believe that by embracing and celebrating our differences, we create a stronger, more unified LearnUpon where every voice is heard and respected.
