SUMMARY:From Strategy to Action - Inclusive Growth Planning Sprint Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Using a 12-week inclusive growth planning approach\, you’ll identify priorities\, create momentum\, and leave with actions you can take away. \nAbout this event\nMany organisations have inclusion strategies — but turning them into meaningful\, practical action can be challenging.\nThis Equal Futures session is designed to help business owners\, leaders and managers move from good intentions to focused\, achievable action.\nWe’re delighted to welcome Toby Mildon\, Workplace Inclusion Architect and founder of Mildon\, for a highly practical and interactive workshop.\n\nWorkshop Content\nThis session supports attendees to move from inclusion strategy to practical action. You’ll explore what works in real workplaces\, what often gets in the way\, and where the key opportunities are for 2026.\nUsing a simple 12-week inclusive growth planning approach\, you’ll identify priorities\, create momentum\, and leave with actions you can take back to your organisation.\nThe session includes time for reflection and peer discussion\, allowing you to learn from other employers and build confidence for the year ahead. \n\nKey Outcomes\nBy attending\, you’ll gain:\n\nA clearer view of what inclusive growth looks like in practice — and how it supports performance and mission\nA shortlist of realistic actions you can take in the next 12 weeks\nA simple way to translate inclusion goals into three focused workstreams\, quick wins and basic measures of progress\nA better understanding of common blockers — and how to tackle them\nPractical insight from peers through table discussions\nIncreased confidence to talk about inclusion in a way that feels safe\, doable and constructive for senior leaders\n\nWhy attend now?\nMany inclusion strategies fail because they become too broad\, too long-term\, or too difficult to deliver.
