DEI Consulting Services to support your people and business – Powered by People

After three decades in the diversity business, if we’ve learnt one thing, it’s that DEI needs to be sustainable and embedded. We’ve applied that principle to our DEI & HR consultancy support. Work with us and you’ll get an HR business partner who is also an DEI expert, fully equipped to weave inclusive working throughout your HR function.

Let’s dismantle the thinking that DEI is a separate workstream or something else that we do. DEI is at the crux of every employee touchpoint, every customer interaction, and every leadership decision taken. It’s central to the vision mission statement of your organisation, which is powered by people—different people. And that requires a new way of working, one where HR and DEI are seen as inseparable when it comes to:

  • How the workplace is changing and how to make sure no one is left behind
  • Meeting the expectations of younger generations as they enter the job market
  • Putting you in the best place to respond to and win the race for talent
  • Encouraging everyday conversations around positive, practical progress on DEI

What our clients say

The EW Group worked hand in hand with us from the beginning to diagnose our EDI pain points and opportunities. With their help, we focused our efforts on moving the dial on inclusion. EW have designed and delivered tailored Inclusive Cultures and Respect & Inclusion workshops and an Unconscious Bias e-learning programme for us which have all now been delivered to all staff. The process included bespoke acted scenarios, scripted and filmed by EW Group, that really brought the content to life. EW facilitators are deeply knowledgeable and super engaging. We're committed to building upon the great work that they have helped us to kick start.
