Turkey's First Inclusive Hiring Community

Stop being
gatekeepers.
Become value
architects.

The talent crisis isn't about shortage — it's about who we're failing to see. IN-PACT brings HR teams and talent managers together to change that.

Why We Built This
"Under the mask of 'cultural fit,' we unknowingly select only those who look like us. Hiring has become a comfort-zone trap that copies the status quo."
The silent crisis in hiring · 2025
🚨
The Problem Is Structural
Every talent team faces the same challenge: attracting and retaining the next generation with tools designed for the last one.
🔍
Blind Spots in Every Process
Unconscious bias in job descriptions, interviews and assessments means the right people are systematically left invisible.
💡
Awareness Alone Doesn't Move the Needle
Real change needs peer accountability, shared frameworks and measurable outcomes — not one-off trainings.
🤝
No Organization Should Solve This Alone
The best insights come from peers facing the exact same challenges. IN-PACT is where that happens.
What Is IN-PACT

A structured community for equitable hiring.

An initiative by Grafton, Turkishe and Nexera — three organizations that saw the same gap from three different angles. Not a conference. Not a training. A community built to turn insight into behavior change.

🎯
Real-Time Talent Intelligence
Gen Z expectations, hiring trends and DEIB developments — directly from research and from young talent themselves, not filtered through a report summary.
📊
Measurable DEIB Progress
Organization-specific KPIs, SROI measurement and data-backed progress tracking. Intentions become evidence.
Actionable Every Session
Every roundtable ends with organization-specific next steps you can act on Monday morning. Execution, not inspiration.
🎤
Direct Youth Voice
Hear directly from 500,000+ young people through the Turkishe network. Unfiltered. First-hand. Not from a slide deck.
🔄
Peer-to-Peer Learning
Connect with HR leaders across organizations facing the same challenges. Collective intelligence beats isolated guesswork.
🌟
Employer Brand Edge
Be recognized as the organization that genuinely builds inclusive culture — and attract the talent your competitors can't reach.
Three Forces. One Pact.

Why these three?

Each partner fills a gap the others can't. Together, they form Turkey's most complete ecosystem for inclusive talent development.
