Open-source, good practice guides and industry insights based on years of experience.

Success in any field comes by learning what others have already learned and then applying it to your own situation. Our playbooks are filled with the insights and best practices that our Equal experts network have learned over the years working with hundreds of customers. They are a great example of the power of the Equal Experts network.

One of our shared principles is that we value a passion for learning over knowing all the answers. We don’t pretend to know all the answers – but we are confident in our ability to find them. We do not hire very experienced people because they know everything, but rather because they are better at knowing how and where to look for the answers.

We hope you find these playbooks as useful as we do.
