Bi-monthly, Matterpeeps come together to discuss global issues, momentous events or other high-profile topics that may lead to misunderstanding or division. These Courageous Discussions forums provide our Matterpeeps with the opportunity to share their feelings in a non-political, respectful atmosphere, while enabling them to learn from each other and understand different perspectives. Topics can range from current affairs to disability, neurodiversity and what it means to be an ally.

We value a diverse and inclusive workplace where employees are given opportunities to continue their development journey. Our EMERGE Program (Elevating Matterpeep’s Empowerment, Retention, Growth, and Excellence) expands underrepresented employees’ access to talent development to foster leadership skills and business acumen through a diversity, equity, and inclusion lens. This six-week program is open to employees who identify as BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) and/​or identify as women or another marginalized gender. Through discussion, learning sessions, mentorship exposure, and group collaborations, our 18 participants in 2023 were able to grow professionally and make valuable connections with senior leadership and Matterpeeps from across the organization.
