We are SocialQuest.
Our quest for social equity leads to impactful actions that aim to make more resilient communities.
Our
Values
DIVERSITY & INCLUSION
SocialQuest leads by experience through its diverse team and champions the various perspectives, unique points of views, and authentic experiences of the communities we engage which empowers our team to bring forward thoughtful and innovative ideas.
EMPATHY
Empathy drives every level of our work. We believe that not only recognizing, but also relating to the challenges experienced by the communities we engage with builds the foundation and opportunity for altering human behavior.
IMPACT
We share a collective vision surrounding the power of our work which fuels impactful, positive outcomes.
INTEGRITY
Our strong reputation is built on our foundational core value of integrity. This leads to quality partnerships and honest client relations which in turn promote a healthy working culture within our team.
Founding Principles
-
We are motivated and fueled by research that creates change in behaviors and attitudes resulting in innovation and progress. SocialQuest always connects behavioral and attitude change to culture. Consequently, we employ fully inclusive and participatory methods in which all individuals, especially those often overlooked or forgotten, are heard and their responses valued and considered. We believe our work must provide clients with unique and timely insights and actionable strategies while also helping communities to be better served and to become more resilient.
-
We began our journey 20+ years ago. Now, we leverage those decades of experience to provide our clients with an in-depth understanding of how both social and business systems and organizations work. Our expertise, experience and proprietary approaches yield transformative outcomes for both the social and corporate clients we serve resulting in lasting individual, organizational, systemic, and policy change.
OUR PEOPLE
Our team members have academic, business and social science backgrounds in the fields of psychology, anthropology, sociology, marketing, statistics, semiotics, law and public affairs. Their experiences allow us to provide a dynamic and broadly-informed approach to our work, one that yields insights that can transform individuals, organizations and communities.
