A percentage of every sale funds our Catalyst Program, which provides employee development to small nonprofits.

Our mission is to help companies achieve results faster while creating environments where individuals and teams can thrive. We do this by teaching small changes in communication and collaboration that drive significant workplace impact. Our vision is to empower 1 million people across five continents with skills for effective, inclusive, and high-performing workplaces. We are committed to Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Anti-bias (IDEA), championed by our IDEA Council. We also prioritize a fun, fulfilling workplace and a diverse, inclusive, and thoughtful team.

Our team has between 51 and 200 employees. We are diverse, inclusive, and thoughtful, made up of experts who are passionate about giving people essential skills. Our facilitators include teachers, psychologists, researchers, and experienced trainers for managers, teams, and leaders.

Our culture focuses on making work more meaningful, promoting a fun and fulfilling workplace. We prioritize equity and accessibility in our hiring process to address discrimination and bias in recruitment. We use structured questions and scorecards, limit experience requirements, involve multiple decision-makers, and offer various accommodations. Interviewers receive training to recognize and reduce biases.

We support Labmate Communities through six active Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) focused on shared identities, encouraging engagement and support. An IDEA (Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Anti-bias) Council unites employees to champion these principles, identify gaps, and develop initiatives. The Lab Coaching Program pairs employees with internal LabCoaches for personal and professional development through one-on-one sessions, using coaching skills taught in company workshops.

We offer several benefits and perks to our employees, including medical, dental, and vision insurance, brain-friendly PTO, predictable salary progression, and a 401(K) retirement plan. For remote roles, we have 2 virtual weeks, and all employees benefit from Kind Fridays (leaving at 3pm) and a dedicated mental health day.

For team engagement and development, benefits include weekly missions, team days on Fridays, monthly team time, monthly Donut pairings, biannual retreats, and surprise celebrations, along with mascot visits. Learning and development benefits comprise a dedicated personal peer coach, personal learning days and a Professional Development FUNd, role-specific development, access to all workshops, library, and research depot, opportunities to conduct personal research, and a dedicated day to Open the Circle.
