Testimonials

EW tailored the D&I audit to focus exactly where we needed. They were flexible and available and their consultant was a great partner to engage with our steering group and leadership team. The outcomes have formed the basis of our three-year Belonging strategy, and I’m looking forward to having another audit in three years to see how far we’ve come!

Thank you for the training, Femi Otitoju. You really made clear to me the challenges I/we face and offered constructive ways to overcome them. You have a fantastic manner and you enabled me to engage in the work in a relaxed and unthreatened way.

The most useful tool I have taken from the training is feeling more able to challenge difficult situations if I'm uncomfortable, not to push down my own feelings, and encourage my teams to do the same.

At the Scottish Parliament, Challenge Consultancy provided training to all 600 staff - on a broad range of equality and diversity issues and bullying and harassment. The training provided by Challenge Consultancy was incredibly effective in changing the culture across the Parliament. In particular, the Parliament noticed a very quick and positive transformation in the level of enthusiasm amongst staff for equality issues and the seriousness with which these issues were treated. The Parliament also saw a significant reduction in the number of staff saying, in confidential staff surveys, that they had experienced bullying or harassment .

Thank you so much for yet another Gold Standard presentation that left our Board members thoughtful, reflective and moved to think about next steps in their work and personal lives.

The Economist Group wanted to respond powerfully to the challenges of inequalities that have been brought to the fore by the Black Lives Matter movement: our partnership with EW Group enabled us to do that. They helped us map our current strengths and draw up a challenging programme of action that addresses racism, sexism, social immobility and all other forms of disadvantage.

EW Group deliver with style, personality and impact.

It was a real pleasure working with everyone at EW Group. The facilitators were real experts in this field and worked really collaboratively with a very diverse group of managers. They really bought to light why this topic is so important to Halfords and our future success as a business. The sessions created lots of debate (and appropriate banter), which helped to cement the main takes from the sessions. We are really confident that when the Managers roll this out to their teams, that we will see positive moves to address our Diversity agenda.

The leadership on diversity and inclusion needs to come from the top. This is not something you can delegate.

EW Group have worked on several important projects for HS2. I have always found their work to be of the highest quality, at competitive rates which give tremendous value for money. I can recommend EW Group to any organisation without hesitation.
