As a small, but rapidly growing organization, MDR places a very high premium on excellence in corporate governance and continuous improvement.
Deeply committed to the principles of equity, diversity, and inclusion, and triple-bottom-line economics, we are a people-first organization. Our staff is a tight team of highly qualified professionals who have previously faced personal or systemic challenges to access the Canadian labour market equitably.
By focusing on future potential, not past successes, we have passionately developed a corporate culture of belonging that is evident in our decision-making process, where everyone’s voice is considered and valued. We challenge our professionals to experiment and take risks beyond their comfort zones to build confidence and expand their professional horizons.
MDR Strategy Group is the only known firm of its kind in Canada where 100% of its staff sees itself as a member of at least one diverse community. A company that is 100% Black-owned, we also embrace the values of Afrocentric leadership, where our role is focused on community-driven leadership to proactively serve the public with the intent to drive social impact.
To accredit our values, we are in the process of applying to be considered a B Certified Company, a distinguished designation that recognizes a business meeting high standards of verified performance, accountability, and transparency on factors from employee benefits and charitable giving to supply chain practices and input materials.
The results of our approach and dedication are evident. MDR is growing at a rate faster than anticipated, with more and more clients, especially in Canada’s regulatory sector, reaching out for unique and impactful solutions in strategic communications and management consulting.
