Businesses
We help you get the gender balance right through our specialist training and consultancy support
Getting the balance right
Our consultancy and training improves your recruitment, retention and reputation – it makes for a better, more profitable business.
We are different in that we provide solutions that don’t just scratch the surface of gender diversity issues but we provide a holistic and comprehensive solution that is bespoke to your organisation and really gets to the root of the issues.
Creating the right conditions and environment for better gender balance is a long term goal and we start with identifying where you are starting from in each of the key areas that need to be looked at.
Seven Steps to Better Balance™
Reviewing your current policies, processes and practices in line with our Seven Steps to Better Balance™. Rather than offer a ‘one size fits all’, our approach is to encourage companies to look at all the challenges they may face, there may be obvious ones such as recruitment which may be a priority, but ideally any gender diversity strategy and activity will be holistic and take into account each of these key areas

Programmes
Procter & Gamble approached us to help with issues they were facing around female colleagues not progressing. We developed a bespoke 5 month programme of support which has already led to significant impact and change in their organisation. Crucially, 61% of attendees have now progressed into more senior roles in the company.
“This goes beyond the usual skill building you get in a corporate training and helps you learn about you. I feel like I now acknowledge my skills more confidently and can rationalise previous behaviours, perceptions and those of others. And it’s super fun!”
Gemma Carlile
IT Manager, Procter & Gamble
We all have
(unconscious) bias…
A workshop focusing on the issues all companies face of unconscious bias, exploring what it is and how it can be addresses, including taking the unconscious bias test and sharing results as a group with plenty of constructive discussion to follow.
“Excellent stimulus to get us thinking, talking about the issues and how we might want to change things. I also liked the open sharing among the group. I came to learn, and I certainly did that and am challenged to reflect and act.”
Paul Koshy
Innovation Manager, Innovation Super Network
Start the Conversation
Workshop
Group discussion, inclusive of genders, to share opinions and experiences of gender diversity and key issues, barriers and challenges, and how they can be tackled. There are no right or wrong questions and answers here – it’s an open and impartial forum.
“The whole group discussions introduced a lot of thoughts from people of different background and experiences. It was insightful to listen to contrasting opinions and challenge my own thoughts and becoming more self-aware. Would definitely recommend.”
James Hanson
Managing Director, Layers Studio
