Forward thinking organisations have moved on from the 'why' diversity and inclusion matters to the 'how' they can make it happen.

Creating great experiences for all parties involved with your organisation can be the difference between success or failure.

Whether it is staff to deliver or customers to buy products or services, the lifeblood of any organisation is people. Truly great experiences, are inclusive. Empathy and understanding of the differing needs and perspectives of the people involved is essential. This needs to be backed up with intentional action to meet those needs. Using The Diversily Toolkit for experience design provides a structured framework to intentionally design great experiences that meet diverse needs. Inclusion doesn't mean losing sight of your target audience or necessarily making huge additional investments. It is about making informed choices and avoiding unintentional exclusion.
Different faces

We need to embed 'Inclusive Thinking' into everyone's world, every day.

This course and The Diversily Toolkit will explain why and show you how.

There is so much that can be done to create more diversity in the workplace, to better serve diverse audiences and to create inclusive environments where we can all thrive together. Diversity & inclusion is good for business, good for individuals and good for society. However to be impactful, meaningful and effective it needs to build into every day practice and not an isolated or sideline consideration.

It provides practical guidelines, examples, talking points, reminders, etc. on how to design a better workplace.
