The teams at both Textio and Paradigm are excited to share that we've partnered to help more organizations hire and retain diverse teams by implementing DEI strategies and technologies that work.

In order to build innovative products that impact revenue, it’s important companies also build teams as diverse as their customer base. In fact, studies have shown that diverse teams outperform homogenous teams by up to 50%. However, for teams being asked to do more with less right now, it can be hard to know where to start or what to prioritize. 

"I’ve been cheering Textio on and recommending their software for years, and I’m passionate about the products they've built to remove bias in the workplace,” said Joelle Emerson, CEO and Co-founder of Paradigm. “Textio makes it easy to turn their incredible, complex wealth of data into action, giving companies the ability to disrupt bias at scale. With our formalized partnership, I am thrilled Textio and Paradigm can help more organizations execute DEI programs that drive impact.”

Both Textio and Paradigm believe it’s mission-critical to build diversity, equity, and inclusion best practices into organizational systems. Together our products and services complement making that happen. Paradigm’s end-to-end suite of technology, tools, and services supports companies as they develop and evolve their DEI strategies, while Textio makes best practices actionable in real-time through its products designed for bias interruption – including Textio Loop for recruiting and Textio Lift for performance management.

“Paradigm takes a data-first approach to defining DEI strategies across an organization's systems and processes,” said Kieran Snyder, co-founder and CEO of Textio. “For both Paradigm and Textio, rigorous data is at the center of our work. Paradigm's tools and services combine perfectly with Textio's software that spots and addresses bias in candidate and employee communication.”

Many teams feel pressure to invest in DEI because it’s the right thing to do. And it is the right thing to do. But performative, “check the box” activities won’t make a difference for the people experiencing bias, discrimination, and lack of belonging in the workplace. By building solutions based on data and real-world impact, Textio and Paradigm are offering organizations the tools to drive real, sustainable change.

Textio’s CTO Tacita Morway and Paradigm’s President Dr. Evelyn Carter recently hosted a webinar on inclusive performance management, which is still available for on-demand viewing. Mutual Textio + Paradigm customers will have access to preferred pricing options.
