Rflect’s mission resonates deeply with my work in organizational behavior — the attention to inner processes, accountability, and meaningful purpose aligns with how I believe organizations can evolve with integrity. I support Rflect because it offers a bridge between individual self-reflection and systemic change, which is exactly where impact becomes sustainable.
