Our aim is to help companies and people realise their potential.  Our focus is on driving diversity and intersectionality to promote a high-performance culture that delivers to clients at the highest standard and allows us to become an employer of choice.

The benefits of having a diverse and inclusive workforce are widely recognised.  Organisations are embracing different perspectives and becoming more agile and better equipped to be able to serve the needs of their clients.

As a challenger consultancy around people and change, Sheffield Haworth partners with clients to provide insight and solutions on how to attract and retain diverse talent and create more inclusive organisations.

Here are some of the initiatives we have developed:

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Group

We have set up an internal group made up of representatives from across our offices.  The Group generates ideas on how to challenge clients around D&I and provides solutions to help them move forwards.  We draw on experiences from previous engagements and assess what other organisations are doing to attract and nurture talent to gather learnings for future mandates.

Talent Development Practice

Our clients have access to a renowned team of coaches and tools to assess and onboard new hires, current teams and individuals.  Our experienced team of consultants work with organisations to identify skill gaps, succession plan and build talent pipelines to create inclusive and diverse businesses fit for the future.

Event Participation

Our team regularly attend and participate in diversity and inclusion events and conferences hosted by both clients and networks we are partnered with.  This helps increase our learning and understanding and keeps us up to date with the latest thought leadership and initiatives which informs our thinking in shaping the solutions we provide to our clients.

Thought Leadership

We produce our own thought leadership papers on diversity, equity and inclusion including The Road Less Travelled which reviewed the road to partnership for females within management consultancies.  We also undertake in-depth diversity studies on behalf of our clients.

Partnerships

Sheffield Haworth is a proud partner of the Diversity Project which is a cross-company initiative championing a more inclusive culture within the Savings, Investment and wider Financial Services sector.  The organisation aims to build a truly diverse and inclusive UK investment and savings industry with the right talent to deliver the best possible results for clients and to reflect the society it serves.

We are also proud sponsors of the ISC Group, a global business community for women operating in, or involved with, insurance.
