Reimagining the systems that stand in the way of inclusive innovation.
We partner with organisations and leaders of change, to identify and remove barriers to equality, drive inclusive innovation, and achieve social impact at scale. We are driven by a desire to reinvent the systems that stand in the way of a more equitable future of work.
We think big, lead with humility and curiosity, and pursue impact that will outlive us all.
We invest in listening as a precursor to solving, place lived experience at the centre of design, and hold respect and integrity as the non-negotiable foundations of any and all collaborations.
Our reputation is underpinned by substance. There is no substitute.

Everyone needs a chance and a champion. Many times finding that chance is very difficult. But when you have that chance, you also need someone who fights for you and who advocates for you. And Nicola is one of the most selfless people I've ever met in my life... she has always been an advocate not just for the women of Australia, but for the women of the world."
