The Big Inclusion Mistake That I Have Been Making

Every week I talk about some of the biggest mistakes that organisations make on their inclusion journey

Find out that I’ve realised I’ve been making the same mistake!

I want you to help me change that

I’m not going to be talking about inclusion mistakes that organisations are making,

I’m not going to be talking about research that you can apply.

I’m not going to be doing a book review.

If you’re a regular listener to the show you’ve heard me talk me about the 3 biggest mistakes that organisations make on their inclusion journey.

I’ve realised that I’ve been making one of these mistakes related to people.

Organisations struggle to engage the people that they want to include.

I think I’ve been doing the same thing,

I’m struggling to engage the people that I want to include and that’s you.

I need to engage you more

Meet with you more.

Next year is 2020

That’s 10 years since I started my inclusion journey

But I don’t want to wait till 2020 to engage you

Here’s what I want to do:

I’m creating time to visit 10 organisations to engage with you and your colleagues directly

Do you want me to come and deliver a lunch and learn session in your office?

Do you want me to come and contribute to your next D&I meeting?

Do you want me to deliver a Masterclass to senior managers?

Get in touch

This doesn’t require months of planning, it doesn’t require lots of people

All it requires is you reaching out to me and we can make this happen.

If the timing isn’t great, reach out anyway, let’s see what we can do.

Get in touch or leave a message, I would love to hear from you.
