“[10KC] is not clunky. It's not difficult. It really is seamless. The experience is enhanced for people versus, ‘oh my gosh what is this other thing that I have to spend time figuring out?!’ When we are looking to scale how we are building relationships, the experience that we are providing for people has to deliver.”
- Latraviette Smith-Wilson, Chief Marketing and Equity Officer
Horizon Media, through internal surveys and a DEI audit, identified a growing urgency for scalable, purpose-driven mentorship and connection initiatives. The company's hybrid work model presented a new opportunity: fostering meaningful interactions and learning opportunities across a geographically dispersed team.
While they had implemented mentorship in the past, it was limited in scope and lacked the ability to measure success or track progress effectively. A scalable, data-driven mentorship solution was crucial to support the evolving workforce and provide an actionable, results-oriented solution.
The company was determined to find a partner who truly understood their unique goals and the dynamics of their workforce, recognizing that a one-size-fits-all solution wouldn't cut it.
This search led to a collaboration with 10KC, giving birth to Horizon THRIVE—an acronym that perfectly encapsulates their vision: Transforming How Relationships Inspire and Value Everyone.
