Start with your why
?
What are your drivers and benefits for being inclusive
Knowing your why for inclusion, influences what your inclusive actions are.
It's the starting point, that determines your route map.
Helping inform your discussions
Research can show us what’s happening, other research can show us the solutions. We connect the two, translate the relevancy, into quick to read formats, so you can access the dispersed and vast inclusion info, with minimal draw on your time.
Facts, research, evidence-based solutions, or others experiences.
Asking thought provoking questions
We ask questions to help direct and provoke discussion, to identify your why.
Q Why do you want to be more inclusive?
Q How can being more inclusive, help deliver your overall investment agenda?
Q Is recruiting a current challenge you are facing? Would diversifying both sides of the table, attract more women to work in investment?
Q What social change influences are impacting the investment environment?
Q What is the process in the critical 'can we work together' decision stage?
Find your route
Then how
When you know your why, and want to know your how
Considering where you are now, your teams time, resources and motivations, we offer bite size steps on how to be inclusive.
Either delivered for you by us, or by giving you the know-how.
For investors & advisors with a pipeline
Do you come across businesses who are not quite ready for funding, or your timing fits a later timescale, yet you want to keep in touch and see them develop?
Develop & keep your pipeline
By sending them our way, we'll work with the business owners and keep in touch with you, for when they are ready and/or your timing is right.
Coach founders
See a clear view on the potential
No-one wants to miss out on the next big deal, by mistaking the potential
Where you consider the potential is less clear, it may be down to gender differences.
We coach the founders to speak your language, to fully convey their
leadership capabilities, and their business growth aspirations.
(whether we're actually different underneath, I don't believe we are, though we do experience a difference in cultural expectations that may influence our behaviours and language)
See the potential
Even the strongest of women can succumb to stereotype expectations when stepping into a male dominated environment.
We offer tools for founders to keep their steel, be themselves and lean in.
Language differences and the interpretation of meaning can differ, we teach founders to speak your language (and vice versa).
Entrepreneurial characteristics are displayed in many differing guises.
We encourage founders to tell their story, to portray the characteristics you're looking for, and be upfront with other characteristics they have found are significant for growing their business.
