Bev’s expertise was instrumental in setting us up for our Diversity and Inclusion journey for our 1200 employees. Her judgement, pragmatic advice, personal approachability and credibility were key to getting engagement of our team and senior leaders. I would recommend her as a key resource to any business either starting out or dealing with diversity and inclusion issues.
When our organisation commenced its diversity journey in 2014 we started with a policy & a blank sheet of paper. Bev was fundamental in providing us with guidance around how we could develop a strategy and a workplan to engage with the business and create an understanding on why a focus on diversity & inclusion was critical to achieving our vision and position us to respond to fundamental changes in our industry. We believe diversity & inclusion sparks innovation and challenges traditional ways of thinking. The support Bev provided us was fundamental in not only enabling us to win awards but challenged us to recognise further gaps and maintain the momentum of our diversity & inclusion programme.
As a small business with a commitment to Diversity and Inclusion, Bev has provided us with the kind of guidance and support that can only be given by someone who is truly immersed and invested in the sector. On a personal level as a woman Bev has inspired me as a leader with her knowledge, integrity, honesty and compassion. Coffee Educators and Able Coffee Collaborative look forward to being a part of the continued impact Bev has on our communities and wider society in NZ.
As part of our organisation’s commitment to Te Tiriti o Waitangi we wanted to ensure that our policies and practices continued to improve diversity, equity and inclusion in the workplace. We reached out to Bev at Diversity Consulting Ltd to continue our work in developing bi-cultural HR practice in Aotearoa, and enhancing the experience of other minority groups. The DCL team assigned to our project brought different strengths and experiences including how to demonstrate that commitment to Te Tiriti in our workplace. They helped us to understand our gaps and strengths and to understand modernised diversity, equity and inclusion practices. The work completed by the DCL team informed our future planning and investment, they were great to work with and really understood our needs.
I have had the pleasure of enjoying a long partnership with Bev on many Diversity initiatives and have found her passion, commitment and leadership in the Diversity & Inclusion space inspiring.
The issues of Diversity and Inclusion have become real issues for Business community and the Public Service over the last decade. Bev will work with your organisation in a way that ensures behaviour changes that reflect todays values and consequences that demonstrate those changes make good business and institutional sense.
Bev has been a great advisor, challenger and encourager of all our Diversity and Inclusion activity, from the work on strategy to the programmes we delivered and the support and training we needed. The real difference Bev has brought was to see the whole world of Diversity and Inclusion but also to be practical and realistic on what really counts.
