About Us
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DE&I) in the workplace is a no brainer. Likewise, it makes sense in business terms too. Studies show an 80% improvement in business performance among those with high diversity levels. When people feel included and able to reach their full potential, they are more engaged.

Inclusive Leadership
The definitive guide to developing and executing an impactful diversity and inclusion strategy – locally and globally.
Inclusive Leadership - the definitive guide to developing and executing an impactful diversity and inclusion strategy – locally and globally, aims to guide organisations to achieve the change they are striving for in a straightforward, no-nonsense style.
Looking at all aspects of business, it works through the whole employee life cycle and considers how to achieve a diverse supply chain. It introduces the STAR framework that any sized organisation can use to get them thinking about where they are on their DE&I journey and where they want to be. The book shares examples of best practices from around the world; this is the first book on diversity and inclusion that offers tried and tested approaches to achieving sustainable change.
