Unleash the Power of Effective ED&I Data to Advance Your Inclusion Ambition
Companies are starting to recognise the impact that a sustainable, diverse and inclusive culture has, not just when it comes to business innovation and profitability but also in relation to employee attraction, engagement and retention. When an inclusive approach is lacking, it may signal deficiencies in respect of the underlying culture and leadership of the organisation.
Research from our Accelerating Inclusion Report highlighted that 68% of respondents did not have a Inclusion Data Dashboard against which the Board regularly measures their Inclusion journey - so how can they measure progress?!

Elevate the effectiveness of your Equality, Diversity & Inclusion (ED&I) data and simplify the creation of your Inclusion Performance Dashboard with our 'How to...' toolkit.

What others are saying...
Natalie - Chief People Officer
"We are extremely dedicated to creating a culture of inclusion within our organisation and whilst we have implemented a range of inclusion initiatives, we realised that we hadn't created a dashboard against which we could truly measure progress.
This toolkit and accompanying skills programme really helped us to gain clarity on the key areas we needed to focus. Managers are now able to quickly identify patterns. We are using the information to integrate ED&I into our people and business processes, and we are using the information to shape our customer products and experiences. The toolkit has enabled us to think about our Inclusion efforts holistically. We now have an Inclusion Performance Report that we share regularly with our Board and stakeholders.
The toolkit is fantastic and I have no hesitation in recommending it to others!"
Alasdair - HR Director
"We found the ED&I Data Toolkit to be incredibly intuitive and easy to use. The step-by-step process made it easy for us to understand what we needed to do. The resources provided in the toolkit were highly relevant to our business, and the thought-provoking questions and checklists helped us to really consider all aspects of creating an inclusive engaged workplace and knowing the data points to measure the effectiveness of our strategy.
We found the toolkit to be a really valuable resource for our business and I’d highly recommend this to others"
Kate - Head of OD
"I highly recommend this toolkit for anyone who has just started to implement their E,D&I strategy or those who might want to sense check and refresh what they already have in place.
There is everything you need to provoke thought and create metrics in a dashboard to truly demonstrate the impact of all the work you are doing around Inclusion. Each module is supported by additional resources, such as templates & worksheets to give you a robust and unique overview to really make a difference in your organisation"
