Memos for Advancing Inclusive and Impactful Business in a New Era

In 2025, companies face a contested environment, where actions risk retaliation, retribution, or crisis. While employees and customers still expect companies to engage in business inclusion and social impact efforts, the range of opportunities to act openly are narrowing. 

As part of our broader Advancing Inclusive Business Series, these memos are designed to help you determine what actions are feasible in this environment and navigate the rapidly shifting context for inclusive business initiatives.

Each month from October 2025 through January 2026, each memo will include inclusive business insights, trends, and recommendations on a different aspect of the evolving landscape:

• October 2025: Upended Norms for Building Inclusion
• November 2025: Patchwork State and Regional Policy
• December 2025: Workforce Mobility and Immigration
• January 2026: Technology Impacts on Inclusion

For any additional questions or guidance, feel free to reach out to our Inclusive Business experts, Jarrid Green and Jen Stark.
