Bloom
Avery Francis, Founder and CEO of Bloom, created the full-service workplace design consultancy to help companies implement impactful and equitable hiring practices. As Avery's team explains, "Bloom is entirely bootstrapped with no outside investors or owners. [It] was created [to solve] Avery's negative experiences at work".
Driven by Avery's commitment to change, Bloom's revenue and operations have doubled year over year—which even captured the attention of GirlBoss, who invited Avery to host the latest season of its popular podcast, GirlBoss Radio. Avery's also been featured in Forbes and was named one of Betakit's Top 40 Women in Tech.
Guided by the idea that "work should work for all of us," she leads Bloom and its clients with a human-centered approach—reinvesting in her team and their growth, and putting their well-being above the company's bottom line. For Bloom's internal structure, this includes a four-day work week, "right to rest" leave, as well as a menstrual budget that team members are welcome to utilize.
