Build Teams Where Everyone Thrives – and Performance Follows
Building Community Ambassadors
We support you to become catalysts for change through connecting you with your local community ambassadors. Such ambassadors will be able to give your organisation the access to voices which, otherwise, may get overlooked. Together, we equip your Leaders and teams with the tools to drive inclusion and to develop sustainable inclusive cultures that strengthen belonging.
Positive Action – Internal Talent Development
Do you find presentation of Minority Ethnic Groups, Disability, Gender and LGBT stops or diminishes at a certain level of leadership – Ever wondered why?
Get in touch and we would be delighted to share with you our experience of run Positive Action programmes that support your staff from underrepresented groups move gain the skills necessary to progress and develop into senior leadership.
Positive Action – External Engagement and Attraction
We’re proud to have conducted extensive research throughout the UK for both public and private sector organisations to ascertain how people from the different diversity strands would prefer to be communicated with for recruitment purposes.
Our detailed research has indicated that individuals from minority backgrounds utilised the services of community organisations frequently, not only for general advice and information but also to find out about employment opportunities. It is therefore possible for organisations to recruit a more diverse workforce and to help grow the employer brand through working in partnership with relevant community organisations.
Thanks to our excellent relations with organisations such as the religious establishments, minority organisations, associations and societies, we have developed a database of minority organisations that we work with to run engagement and attraction events
Projects that have involved a great deal of community engagement include;
- Recruitment events for executive members and boards
- Minority Ethnic Group recruitment events
- Consultations exercises and research
We believe it is vital for each and every organisation to have a community or service user, or customer buy-in, to achieve diversity objectives. We have the experience and expertise to support and enable you to achieve this.
