There’s never been more discussion around diversity in the workplace. From gender pay gaps to the #MeToo movement to Black Lives Matter, it seems that every organisation has finally recognised that lasting change needs to happen. Maybe yours is one of those. But you may well have sound commercial as well as ethical reasons for wanting to improve diversity and inclusion. Businesses that prioritise Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (D,E&I) are proven to perform better than those that don't. McKinsey estimates that companies in the top quartile for ethnic diversity on executive teams are 36% more likely to have above-average profitability than companies in the fourth quartile. The trend is similar for gender diversity.
Diversity looks at what makes people different. While inclusion looks to create an environment where diversity can thrive because everyone feels they belong. We’ll help you evolve your culture so you gain a richness of ideas, backgrounds and perspectives that sets you apart from your competitors and delivers real business value. Your employees will know how to harness an array of strategies, tools and techniques that increase self-awareness and encourage inclusive behaviour. This, in turn, will signal that the company advocates psychological safety, inclusivity and a sense of belonging.
Every client is different. Wherever you are on your D,E&I journey, we can help you achieve your goals. It starts with an initial conversation to build our understanding of your progress so far and the progress you want to make. Then we set about designing a programme that considers your goals, capabilities and current situation. To enhance impact, we recommend an approach that combines facilitations, surveys, training workshops and, where useful, coaching.
All our solutions are bespoke to your needs. Using our tried & tested unique approach - Less Friction, More Flow℠- we’ll work in partnership with you to ‘oil cogs’, solve frictions, deglitch goals and get your people into flow. In doing this we help you to deliver your strategic aims more effectively.
