Ten programmes that will strengthen inclusion, equity, belonging and employee experience across your organisation

 

Organisations everywhere are recognising a simple truth: inclusion is no longer optional, it is essential for performance, retention and wellbeing. When people feel valued, understood and able to contribute confidently, teams thrive. When inclusion is missing, communication breaks down, conflict rises, and people withdraw.

 

The Howe To Consultancy Inclusion Training suite brings together ten powerful programmes designed to strengthen inclusion, equity, employee experience and organisational culture.

 

Each programme follows our proven 3‑step development process, ensuring change is meaningful, measurable and sustainable.

 

Why organisations are investing in employee experience and inclusion

Global reporting shows a clear pattern: organisations that prioritise inclusion outperform those that don’t, across every sector.

Global evidence shows:

• Inclusive organisations are 8x more likely to achieve better business outcomes (McKinsey).

• Employees who feel they belong are 56% more likely to stay long‑term (Better Up).

• Psychological safety is the number one predictor of high‑performing teams (Google’s Project Aristotle).

• Inclusive teams make decisions 2x faster with 50% fewer meetings (Gartner).

• Neurodiversity‑inclusive teams are more innovative and solve problems more effectively (Harvard Business Review).

• Hybrid working has increased feelings of isolation, making intentional inclusion essential (Gallup).

• Menopause impacts 1 in 10 women’s ability to stay in work, yet 80% say their workplace offers no support (UK Gov Equalities Office).

• Employee experience is now a top global priority, with 92% of organisations reporting it directly affects retention, wellbeing and performance (Deloitte).

 

Across all sectors leaders are asking:

“How do we understand the real experience of our employees, and how do we make it better?”

Our Inclusion and Training suite has been designed to answer these questions and provide you with clarity and manageable steps to move your organisation forward.
