Testimonials
In collaboration with our Senior Leadership Team, we appointed Inclusive Group to support and strengthen our work around inclusion and belonging across the business. From the outset, Inclusive Group have worked collaboratively with us to understand our culture, challenges, and aspirations, designing a tailored programme aligned with our specific needs.
Inclusive Group has delivered a combination of one to coaching and workshops for our senior leads to help lead inclusion meaningfully, as well as training for all levels of our business.
Jen’s delivery during training has been excellent and engaging, Jazz has been a great support with keeping us organised and on track. Sasha is working with our SLT directly and has been is instrumental in supporting our drive for accountability and cultural change. Sasha’s delivery style is strategic, thought-provoking, grounded with real world application and her ability to help develop clear action plans is invaluable.
I would highly recommend Inclusion Group to any business, seeking expert, credible support to advance inclusion.
Thank you to Sasha and the team.

“Sasha has provided unconscious bias and inclusive behaviours workshops for me in several different organisations over the years. Sasha recently ran an Inclusive Leadership session for our Diversity and Inclusion community and leadership board. The leadership session has heightened the awareness of inclusive behaviours and received great feedback from the Board who found it engaging and thought provoking.
We look forward to working with the Inclusive Group again in the coming months to roll out inclusive behaviours education across the business.”

Sasha’s analysis and strategic guidance has made a significant difference to our D&I journey, we have found her to be endlessly interested, generous and supportive.
The interventions Inclusive Group have delivered have been thought provoking and engaging as well as challenging, leading to a greater recognition, more open discussions, an increase in self-reflection and ultimately changed behaviours.”

“Sasha was the keynote speaker during our MBA Online Meet-up week. In her honest and direct speech, she fostered a more Inclusive Working Culture. Sasha inspired our students to embrace the concept of “diversity of thoughts” and to consider “Diversity” as “Disruption” and “Inclusion” as “Innovation”. This was the perfect steppingstone to a week which dealt with the issues of gender parity, inclusion, and diversity within the business world.”

“I have worked with Sasha on a number of projected across various firms. Sasha’s understanding of Diversity and Inclusion is second to none, she is certainly an expert in her field. She has a straightforward, no nonsense approach whist remaining professional and empathetic in her delivery. She skilfully unearths the core issues that are impacting organisations and does not back away from exploring the difficult conversations that may need to be had! She understood the world in which we were operating and provided first-class solutions. Sasha conducted D & I audits and delivered training across all levels of the firms’ personnel which was informative, insightful and engaging. Sasha has proved to be a trusted advisor and is a dream to deal with.”

“The simplicity of the introductory session was not overwhelming and it felt manageable. Sasha covered the key concepts of mindfulness and followed up the course with recommendations on reading and iPhone apps to get you started. The course was delivered in a warm and engaging teaching style and was an excellent taster for developing Mindfulness as individuals. I would thoroughly recommend it.”

“Inclusive Group have been a true partner to Grosvenor as we embarked on our Diversity and Inclusion journey. Sasha and Jen invested time in getting to know our business and worked very closely with me to review our strategy and shape our implementation plan. What has particularly stood out for me is the bespoke nature of the solutions they have delivered for us. This hasn’t been about delivering off the shelf D&I training, but a collaborative approach that has not only been well received by the business, but ensures that this is a relationship we’ll be in for the long term.”
Sarah Turner

“Inclusive Group is our trusted partner on our ‘We all Make a Difference’, journey. Having Sasha, Jen and team as a trusted friend has really enabled us to make good progress with embedding diversity and inclusion across our business. Their passionate and professional approach is refreshing, and their knowledge and expertise around training, strategy, current best practice and thinking has proved invaluable. From the beginning, the team at Inclusive Group did everything possible to understand our company and culture, with a genuine care to move us along our inclusivity journey.” We couldn’t have wished for a better company to partner with.”
Kirstie Loveridge

“Our organisation has been very focussed on bringing about positive change in the outside world, and less so on our own levels of inclusiveness and our own diversity. Sasha gave our team a powerful introduction to our inherent biases and ways of working, which we need to address. Sasha’s presentation had a big impact on us and set the tone for a really positive and thoughtful session for our team. We are thankful for Sasha’s contribution to our evolving culture and practice, and for creating an open atmosphere in the team.”
