Diversity & Inclusion Consulting
Establishing inclusive workplaces and achieving equality of opportunity for employees is a global business imperative.
In times of uncertainty, having a strong focus on D&I and wellbeing is critical to helping staff feel safe and engaged, while also helping position the organisation for recovery and growth.
Leveraging our experience in diversity and inclusion (D&I) and cultural change, our team supports organisations to identify and disrupt barriers to inclusion and strengthen inclusive leadership capability.
We do this by developing and embedding impactful, tailored interventions that reflect your organisation’s key business priorities.
Key considerations
Are you deriving actionable insights from your D&I and culture data to develop an evidence-based approach?
Is a D&I lens applied to business processes impacted by COVID-19, e.g. return to office plans, restructuring, complaints handling?
Is your D&I strategy aligned to your organisational strategy and good practice guidance?
Are there systemic barriers preventing you from realising the benefits of flexible working and from accessing top talent?
Do senior leaders understand why D&I is important and are they equipped with the necessary skills to lead inclusively?
Have you identified and taken steps to mitigate key risks relating to D&I, ER, mental health and wellbeing?
