Do all the people in your organisation feel safe to contribute?
Do all contributors feel valued the same way, regardless of their position or ethnicity?
The Culture and Design Lab empowers workplace leaders to create social cohesion at work. We use indigenous knowledge, design, and strategy to foster inclusion and belonging in the workplace.
We hear that a lot. Systemic racism is not a label that any organisation is proud to display. Yet, it’s a reality that many organisations need to acknowledge and disrupt to transform into an organisation that thrives. With The Culture and Design Lab, you can fail fast, ask the hard questions and create your own solutions without feeling judged.
Your organisation or business continually seeks to improve its strategic communications plan with clients and stakeholders, but how do you improve your engagement with Māori and Pasifika?
Our mini cultural audit can help you assess your organisation’s engagement with Māori and Pasifika clients and stakeholders in sixteen simple questions.
With expert knowledge in Māori and Pacific cultural intelligence, we offer tailored strategies that bring cultural sensitivity and inclusion front and centre in the workplace. Let's work together to challenge systemic racism and foster belonging and inclusion in the workplace.
