A safe space for those who grapple with navigating the intricate challenges of the modern workplace. 

let's get started

A grey area is an ill-defined situation, not readily conforming to a category or to an existing set of rules.

In other words, it’s murky AF. Without clearly communicated guidelines in place, the best path forward can be difficult to discern, leading to challenges in career advancement. 

Good news! We're the answer to workplace ambiguity. Our educational digital platform and courses, podcast, and supportive community empowers employees to navigate uncertainty. We hold corporations, executives, and human resource teams accountable by promoting education, transparency, and shared stories in order to drive change.
