About Us
Our co-founders created IDEAS Generation out of their desire for a community of practice for next-generation DEI/IDEAS leaders.
​
​
HEAR WHAT OUR FOUNDERS HAVE TO SAY
At IDEAS Generation, we envision a world of diverse, intergenerationally connected change-makers leading communities and organizations in becoming more equitable, inclusive, accessible, and just.
​
To realize this vision, IDEAS Generation is working toward a vibrant, sustainable DEI ecosystem where:
​
1. emerging leaders have the skills and support to be successful as well as access to clear professional pathways to meaningful IDEAS jobs and opportunities
​
2. organizations have reliable internal leaders and external partners to support them on their IDEAS journeys, and
​
3. the field has replicable and scalable models for talent development, organizational interventions, and innovation - and the means by which to share this knowledge effectively.
WHAT WE DO
The future of IDEAS work, and by extension, the vitality of our organizations and communities lies in empowering Millennial and Gen-Z talent, who represent a growing majority of the workforce and community leadership.
Now more than ever, our organizations and communities need new perspectives, linkages, and ideas to disrupt the systems of inequity and injustice that our generations have inherited. In order to co-create a more just and equitable society, our programs and services support next-gen leaders (teal) and organizations (navy) at the intersection of their most urgent needs: Community, Resources, and Opportunity.

SITE ACCESSIBILITY
Updated: February 2023.
General
Accessibility is a key underpinning of our IDEAS framework and is central to building a more just society. To make our community and services accessible to as many people as possible, we have invested in resources to help ensure that our website is made easier to use and more accessible for people with disabilities.

Accessibility on www.ideasgeneration.org
Recite Me Web Accessibility and Language Toolbar
Recite Me is innovative cloud-based software that lets visitors view and use our website in a way that works best for them.
We’ve added the Recite Me web accessibility and language toolbar to our website to make it accessible and inclusive for as many people as possible.
It helps one in four people in the US who have a disability, including those with common conditions like sight loss and dyslexia, access our website in the way that suits them best.
It also meets the needs of one in five people in the US who speak a language other than English at home, by translating our web content into over 100 different languages.
Disclaimer
IDEAS Generation continues its efforts to constantly improve the accessibility of our site, community, and services. We believe that a future of thriving IDEAS leaders and organizations rests upon all of us having seamless and unhindered access to the community, resources, and opportunities that IG provides.
In an ongoing effort to continually improve and remediate accessibility issues, we also regularly scan our site with UserWay's Accessibility Scanner to identify and fix every possible accessibility barrier on our site. Despite our efforts to make all pages and content fully accessible, some content may not have yet been fully adapted to the strictest accessibility standards. This may be a result of not having found or identified the most appropriate technological solution.
