Organisations have been investing in DEI efforts for years with little to no progress being reported.
That's where Inside Out Inclusion® comes in.

An evidence-based approach to DEI grounded in research and behavioural science.
Navigating DEI is complex. We have witnessed a lot of focus on visible diversity and representation, however in the long run this alone does not create the behavioural change that’s needed in future-fit inclusive workforces. Many aspects of equity and inclusion are invisible, which makes them challenging to measure.
Understanding inclusion is pivotal to unlocking DEI and through our model we set out:
The composite factors for creating
inside out inclusion®
The success criteria that enables assessment, benchmarking and action planning.
A framework to define your today state and an accessible methodology to measure progress.
This has been grounded in research, behavioural science, and our experience consulting a large number of private, public and third sector clients. Our model brings together past 'best practice', current ways of thinking and emerging cultural discourse and trends.
Having this clarity enables our client partners to measure, track, and accelerate inclusion and create the impact necessary to affect change.

What is the inside out inclusion® model based on?
Our mission was to articulate what is definitive about inclusion in a way that is relevant to today’s organisations and complex social landscapes. Through the model we cut through the complexity of the DEI agenda and provide clear links between inclusion, tangible business metrics and broader organisational values.
We embarked on a multi-method approach to developing the model that factors in:
The science
We analysed the latest research on inclusion as a construct to surface the core principles that underpin inclusion
Comparative validity
We reviewed two types of current models of inclusion i) those developed by theorists and academics ii) those developed.
Real-life relevance
We analysed our own qualitative and quantitative data from 5,000+ working professionals.
