Advancing DEIB
Organisations that champion Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging outperform peers with stronger innovation, engagement, and financial results. Move beyond tick-box activity and embed inclusion into the DNA of your culture.
the problem
The cost of under representation
Too often, DEIB efforts stay surface-level – awareness sessions, campaigns, or policy tweaks that fail to shift behaviours or deliver real change.
At the same time, pressure from regulators, employees, investors, and clients is mounting. When DEIB isn’t taken seriously, organisations miss out on innovation, lose top talent, and expose themselves to legal and financial risk.

Frequently asked questions
Many D&I initiatives stall because they are treated as standalone exercises or compliance-driven programmes. True inclusion requires structural alignment with your business strategy, leadership accountability, and systemic change embedded into organisational culture. We help clients move beyond compliance to create authentic cultures of belonging, which includes meeting regulatory expectations and employment law standards, but more importantly, it means designing inclusive systems that attract and retain diverse talent, reduce risk, and deliver tangible business value. We take organisations beyond activity to outcome – embedding DEIB into the very fabric of the company.
Begin with insight. We often start with bespoke DEIB assessments, listening sessions, and cultural diagnostics to understand gaps, strengths and areas of misalignment. From there, we co-create a roadmap tailored to your business, capability and culture maturity level – turning good intent into lasting change.
A well-designed DEIB strategy goes beyond awareness training- it addresses structural inequalities, strengthens psychological safety, and embeds inclusive behaviours at every level. This proactive approach reduces the risk of harassment, bullying, and toxic workplace culture while improving retention, engagement and innovation.
Inclusion must be owned and role-modelled by the top team. Our inclusive leadership development programmes work with leaders to build inclusive capability, challenge blind spots, and ensure DEIB goals are integrated into strategic planning, decision-making and governance. When Executives model inclusive behaviour, challenge bias, and hold managers accountable, they send a clear signal that toxic workplace culture will not be tolerated. This not only builds credibility and enhances the employer brand signalling cultural maturity, but it also drives sustainable leadership accountability, helping businesses outperform their competitors on customer trust and loyalty.
The Inclusion Index is a comprehensive, evidence-based assessment tool that measures how inclusive your organisation truly is across behaviours, processes, psychological safety, leadership and more. It reveals gaps and highlights strengths in your DEIB efforts, providing data-driven insights into psychological safety and employee sentiment.
Unlike generic engagement tools, the Inclusion Index offers a diagnostic deep dive into cultural inclusion and team dynamics, highlighting whether DEIB is truly embedded or simply aspirational. It provides practical, strategic recommendations for improvement.
Inclusion drives tangible business outcomes. Organisations that leverage tools like the Inclusion Index see measurable gains in employee engagement, innovation and retention – while mitigating compliance risk and enhancing brand reputation. Furthermore, the Index gives executive leaders a clear, data-informed view of how inclusive their organisation really is, supporting leadership alignment and board-level conversations on DEIB strategy, governance and risk.
