Social Impact

Why Social Impact

At Stax, measurable social impact is woven into our every day. We are thought leaders and generate independent research and offer our own unique insights on a wide-variety of topics, industries, and concerns. We take on nonprofit clients in a unique manner and support our communities on a local level. We also see tremendous opportunities to solve critical social issues through a for-profit, double-bottom line model. At the end of the day, we prefer sustainable impact to short-term results.

Meaningful Insights

We generate independent research and insights on global subjects of interest, with an emphasis on identifying root causes of troubling situations and how best to drive better outcomes with lower cost.

19 Dec, 2020
Earlier in December, Stax Chicago partnered with Dress for Success and hosted a virtual workshop entitled “How to Successfully Navigate Your Virtual Job Search.” The mission of Dress for Success is to empower women to achieve economic independence by providing a network of support, professional attire, and the development tools to help women thrive in work and in life. The job market, interview practices, and technology have changed so much since Stax hosted their last Dress for Success workshop in January 2019 and this year there might have been a learning curve on both host and guest fronts.
