Create a Safe Space for events and places where everyone is able to fully contribute because they feel safe, supported and face no threats.
A SafeSpace Plus ™ encourages every participant to contribute and participate fully in an environment free from harassment where differences are embraced and used constructively for positive outcomes.
Leaders and organizers can create the conditions to increase productive collaboration and reduce organizational risk.

"I think a concept like SafeSpace Plus ™ is desperately needed to enable our communities to contribute their potential fully. I endorse it and am delighted to hear that 10% of their proceeds will provide SafeSpace Plus ™ to Austin nonprofits, eliminating barriers to create inclusive environments."
Monica Munoz Andry, CEO of Greater Austin Hispanic Chamber of Commerce
Organizations
Amplify your peoples contributions, creating a fast moving innovative organization where different viewpoints are welcomed and people feel safe in their activities. In a SafeSpace Plus organization, every member understands what is expected of them and are enabled to confidentially report incidents. Leaders are empowered to take action in a proactive and timely way minimizing risks to the organization.
“SafeSpace Plus ™ is a concept that will help people feel safer in meetings, at conventions, and during conferences. In my 30 years of experience keynoting at such events, I’ve not seen such an innovative and critical response to the needs of everyone feeling comfortable and valued."
Alan Weiss, PhD, author of "Fearless Leadership and over 60 other works.”
Conference and Events
Create events and gatherings that actively include all participants in a positive, welcoming, safe environment. In a SafeSpace Plus ™ event, every participant, leader, speaker, attendee, and vendor acknowledges the Code of Conduct so that their actions align with your desired outcomes. Organizers have a direct line of communication with the activities if you want to avoid any escalations and destructive communication.
“Making the Energy Thought Summit a SafeSpace Plus ™ event enhanced our conference, promoting collaboration in an environment free from harassment. As a CEO working to advance the Energy sector, I am convinced that an approach such as SafeSpace Plus ™ will increase our ability to boost innovation by strengthening inclusion for all."
Jason Rodriguez, CEO Zpryme
