Navigate Your Equity & Inclusion Journey With Confidence
Gain guidance and support to set an effective strategic agenda
As a senior leader in the corporate world, you’re already aware of the many benefits of Equity & Inclusion work — from productivity and innovation to bottom-line profit. I help corporate leadership teams develop their equity and inclusivity policies and strategies for maximum impact with minimum disruption to their day-to-day responsibilities.
The Journey
Equity and inclusion cannot be achieved overnight. This is a journey that requires commitment and organisation-wide effort in multiple dimensions…
Teams
Building equitable and inclusive teams takes more than fair recruitment policies. Truly inclusive teams recognise and embrace their inherent interconnectedness and foster a sense of belonging for all.
Systems
Reducing and removing potential bias or barriers to inclusion begins with addressing the underlying systems. Putting in place the necessary corporate plan, processes, and procedures empowers your organisation to operate with fairness and integrity.
Human Evolution
We humans are not static entities. We are continually evolving and changing in many ways, from our physical and mental health needs to our cultures and communities. To keep pace, businesses must commit to cultivating substantive and meaningful change.
Conscious Awakening
Mindfulness, self-awareness and self-regulation are crucial skills to develop in your organisation’s leaders and staff in order to empower them to perform at their best in every aspect. Equity and inclusion work absolutely requires conscious awareness to succeed.
Feedback from Leaders
“As I was so impressed with my coaching with Lorna I decided to ask Lorna to undertake some work with my team as a whole, and to support me with creating a vision for the team but to also identify training needs. In addition staff received individual coaching, which made the team members feel valued, supported and nurtured their development. Lorna’s role has been valuable in supporting my development as well as that of the team.”
― Manny Sehmbi, Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council ―
“I was looking for ways to improve what I do and coaching with Lorna seemed ideal…knowing it was time for me, that Lorna would listen and help me to look at things in a creative way. I believe I have a better relationship with my staff now than I did.”
