Built on Experience. Driven by Impact.
At Diversity Scotland, we are more than consultants – we are partners in change. We work with organisations across the public, private, and third sectors to embed equity, inclusion, and accessibility into workplace culture, policies, and leadership.
Our work is informed by both lived experience and rigorous evidence – based research. Led by Tony McCaffery, a highly regarded expert in equity and workplace culture, our team brings deep expertise in strategy development, training, and advisory support.
Our Impact
With 42% of employee turnover being preventable and directly linked to workplace culture and management practices, creating fair, inclusive environments isn't just the right thing to do – it's a business imperative.
Our approach helps organisations address the key factors driving preventable turnover, including career development opportunities (cited by 38% of employees as a reason for leaving) and workplace culture.
What We Do
Our Partnership Approach
1. Initial Discovery Call
We begin with a consultation to understand your organisation's specific challenges and goals, allowing us to propose tailored solutions that align with your needs.
Usually this meeting takes no longer than 20-30 minutes.
2. Diagnostics & Consultation
We conduct a thorough discovery process, including leadership discussions, employee engagement analysis, and policy reviews to ensure our interventions are fully informed and relevant.
3. Collaborative Implementation
We work alongside your team to co-create and implement effective solutions, ensuring sustainable transformation.
4. Evidence-Based Impact Tracking
Our strategies are informed by real-world research and impact data, helping you measure and demonstrate success.
Case Studies
Take a look at how we've helped other teams, leaders, and organisations.
Charity Governance & Inclusive Practices
Our Solution:
We facilitated board – level coaching and training on inclusive governance and diverse leadership strategies, helping trustees create more equitable policies and decision – making frameworks.
Their Results:
Within six months, the charity saw a 30% increase in board diversity and higher engagement from underrepresented groups in decision – making processes. Trustees also reported a greater understanding of the lived experiences of their beneficiaries, resulting in more effective and inclusive strategy development.
“Our board feels more connected, representative, and confident. This work has improved both our culture and decision-making.”
The Challenge:
A national charity struggled with governance and representation issues, with limited diversity at the board level and concerns about decision – making processes not being fully inclusive.
Government Contractor: Accessibility Enhancement
Our Solution:
We conducted a comprehensive accessibility audit and provided targeted training workshops for their IT and content teams.
Their Results:
The contractor successfully revamped their digital platforms, resulting in a significant increase in user engagement from individuals with disabilities and improved service delivery for all users.
"This was a turning point for our digital inclusion journey. Our teams are now more confident and informed."
The Challenge:
A leading government contractor recognised the need to make their digital services more accessible, particularly for users with disabilities.
Corporate Inclusive Leadership Development
Our Solution:
We designed and implemented an inclusive leadership programme, focusing on equity, inclusion, and accessibility strategies.
Their Results:
Post – training, the company reported a 25% increase in leadership diversity and a 15% boost in team innovation metrics, with team members reporting feeling more valued and heard.
“The leadership programme fundamentally changed how we think, communicate, and lead. It’s been transformative for our culture.”
The Challenge:
A mid – sized corporation recognised a lack of diversity within its leadership team, leading to homogeneous decision - making.
