REDI Moments That Matter

REDI Moments That Matter are reflective guides that focus on why certain moments—such as recruitment, onboarding, and conflict—deserve particular attention because of their impact on working and learning environments. They help make concepts more concrete by offering benchmarks, guiding questions, and examples that support reflection. These guides are intended to help readers assess their own processes, surface assumptions, and make the case for approaching key moments with greater intentionality and equity awareness.

REDI Moments That Matter: Onboarding

This guide focuses on Onboarding as a key moment that reveals whether commitments to equity, diversity, and inclusion are aligned with real-world practices. It highlights how early experiences shape belonging, engagement, and retention. It invites units to consider ways to level the playing field and create conditions for new faculty and staff to thrive.

REDI Moments That Matter: Faculty & Staff Recruitment

In this first guide, we focus on Faculty and Staff Recruitment as a key moment that signals who is welcome and valued within a unit. The guide invites reflection on how recruitment practices shape culture, belonging, and retention long before someone joins a team, and how processes can either affirm or undermine stated commitments to equity and inclusion.
