Recognising that every company is at a different stage in its D&I path, ODiSEE's process is crafted with compassion, encouragement, and partnership at its heart.

Discovery Session: This gentle 30-minute conversation aims to understand your current D&I initiatives. Instead of an assessment, think of it as sharing your D&I story and aspirations with ODiSEE's experts.

Collaborative Reflection: ODiSEE will then provide insights, drawn from a wealth of best practices across various sectors. However, the benchmarks are not rigid criteria but guiding lights to show what's possible.

Guidance & Support: It's not about where you currently stand but where you aim to be. Should your organisation benefit from additional insights or resources, ODiSEE offers a bespoke support journey tailored to your unique needs.

Celebrating Commitment:
The Diversity & Inclusion Star is awarded to organisations that display genuine dedication to the cause, whether they're just starting or are well into their D&I journey. It's less about perfection and more about genuine commitment and progress.
