Angela Berg on why
it’s time to
pivot DEI.
Take a look at the news headlines any day of the week.
Well-meaning companies and leaders are regularly getting DEI wrong,
from programs and policies that go awry to taking public positions on current events that become viral hotbeds of controversy.
In fact, just about any corporate situation bearing the diversity, equity and inclusion label has the potential to trigger a cascade of negative publicity, damaged morale and unintended consequences.
Even so, many organizations remain committed to creating a workplace where all people have an opportunity to thrive in their careers and enjoy a positive workplace culture.
The challenge is how to achieve these ambitions while avoiding the many pitfalls of traditional DEI.
Perelaks is committed to evolving the corporate DEI conversation through alternative perspectives on talent diversity and workplace inclusion.
We equip organizations and their people to do DEI differently though business-ready strategic guidance.
We believe there is a path for every organization to “do DEI” effectively in its own unique way.
We understand that some companies need or want to make dramatic progress quickly while others are more comfortable with a conservative approach. Some are even skeptical. Wherever your organization sits on this spectrum, we’d love to speak with you to learn about your needs.
Partner with Perelaks to ensure your talent programs align your people, culture and business goals and get the intended results.

About Perelaks
PERELAKS (it’s another way to spell parallax)
Seeing the same thing differently: the parallax effect
Multiple observers, viewing the same object from different positions, will each have different perspectives of what they see. As distances increase, perspectives shift even more. Perhaps even to the point where the observers may ask, are we even looking at the same thing?
It happens in the workplace, too.
Companies today face a daunting task: implementing best practice HR policies, programs, and processes that meet the needs of diverse stakeholder goals and interests while addressing the incredibly varied needs, experiences, and backgrounds of today’s workforce. Where organizations often struggle is to design, implement and sustain HR key programs in a way that truly aligns people, culture, and business into one shared vision.
Perelaks offers a unique approach to solving this challenge. Inspired by the concept of parallax—where observers in different positions see the same object differently—we believe that incorporating multiple perspectives is essential to building HR programs that resonate and have the intended impact. By engaging leadership, HR teams, people managers and employees alike, we help organizations integrate stakeholder insights with best practices to design practical, impactful, and sustainable workforce solutions.
The Perelaks approach:
Acknowledge and leverage the value of multiple and varied perspectives and experiences,
To design and optimize HR programs in a way that gets everyone in the organization aligned and activated.
Getting this right is the foundation for effective, sustainable and inclusive HR programs and policies.
And that’s at the heart of the work we do at Perelaks: leverage a world of perspectives to build one shared vision.
