At The Egalitarian, we believe that safety and inclusion aren’t optional—they’re essential. That’s why our Safe Place Project exists: to help forward-thinking workplaces move beyond performative diversity and into genuine, transformative inclusion.
Our workplace inclusivity training sessions are not generic or surface-level; they are bespoke, trauma-informed and grounded in real experiences collected from our diverse community. Every session is designed to be collaborative, inclusive, and practical—equipping your team with the tools they need to create lasting change in workplace culture.
What sets us apart from other inclusivity training providers is our attention to the intricacies of workplace dynamics that are often ignored or misunderstood. We don’t just talk about broad principles—we go deeper. Our sessions address subtle but significantly harmful behaviours such as mansplaining, gaslighting, and dominating conversations, as well as culturally specific challenges like code-switching. By exploring these nuanced topics, we help your team recognise how seemingly small behaviours can have an impact on colleagues’ sense of safety and belonging. This depth of insight empowers real, tangible progress—not just awareness.
What makes our approach different with maximum impact is the depth and relevance of our content. Our workshops are carefully crafted to challenge myths, encourage open and sometimes difficult conversations, and highlight issues that are too often overlooked. We provide a safe place where teams can explore real-life scenarios, reflect on their own experiences, and develop a stronger understanding of inclusivity in action. The training covers everything from inclusive language and racial equity to victim-led support strategies, effective ally techniques, and how to lead with empathy and empowerment. Through our EDIE model—Empower, Deter, Intervene, Escalate—we help staff understand how to take meaningful action, whether that’s supporting a colleague, de-escalating a situation, or embedding better practices across a team.
We work with organisations of all sizes and structures, adapting our sessions to suit junior staff, senior leadership, or entire companies. Whether your team needs help creating inclusive policies, addressing workplace harm, or simply wants to better understand how to be effective allies, we can make that happen.
Our impact speaks for itself. When AEI Music Ltd. partnered with us, they weren’t just looking for tick-box training—they wanted to shift their internal culture and achieve sustainable change that would make the company a safe place of work where all employees could feel prioritised, proud and appreciated. Together, we developed and delivered an Inclusive Leadership workshop tailored to their needs. The result was a powerful session that helped their leadership team go beyond tangible diversity and begin fostering a culture of genuine empowerment. As George Horn, Head of People and Culture at AEI Music, put it: “The Egalitarian helped us deliver a truly impactful session. They challenged us to go beyond diversity quotas and foster genuine empowerment across our workforce.” We returned to The Halley Space (a branch of AEI Music) to deliver a bespoke session to colleagues who had a role of responding to disclosures. We worked on victim-led responses, including both what to say in the moment, trauma-informed investigation processes and ensuring we are victim-focussed when following these processes.
When you partner with us, your organisation becomes a certified Safe Place, recognised for its commitment to inclusion and employee wellbeing. We provide ongoing support after our workshops, and amplify your efforts through digital promotion, signage, and merchandise that proudly showcase your Safe Place status.
If you’re ready to build a workplace where inclusion isn’t just a policy but a daily practice, we’d love to work with you. Get in touch today to find out how we can help.
