# DEI Audit and Culture Diagnostics

Human by Practice provides diversity consultancy, DEI consultancy, and workplace culture consultancy services that help organisations understand how diversity, equity, inclusion, and culture are experienced in practice. Through diagnostics, audits, strategy development, and culture change consultancy support, you gain a clear picture of what is working, where barriers exist, and what actions will create the greatest impact.

Based in Edinburgh and working with organisations across Glasgow, the Northeast, London and the wider UK, we help leaders make informed decisions that strengthen culture, engagement, and organisational performance.

## How It Works

### Agree scope

Every organisation is different. Our diversity and inclusion consultancy approach begins by understanding your priorities, risk profile, strategic objectives, and organisational context. This ensures the work remains focused, proportionate, and aligned to the outcomes you want to achieve.

### Establish a clear baseline

A targeted diagnostic provides a detailed snapshot of your current culture. Using surveys and data collection, we explore employee engagement, leadership experiences, management practices, inclusion, belonging, and workplace culture. This creates a reliable baseline from which progress can be measured.

### Deepen understanding

Data tells part of the story. Structured interviews, focus groups, and stakeholder conversations help uncover why patterns exist, how experiences differ across groups, and where informal behaviours may not align with organisational intentions.

### Review policies, processes, and practice

Culture is shaped by systems as much as people. We review relevant policies, procedures, recruitment practices, escalation routes, decision-making frameworks, and employee experiences to identify opportunities for improvement.

### Analyse risk and pressure points

Our experienced consultant-led approach identifies areas where inconsistencies, informal practices, or process gaps may create organisational risk.This helps leaders address challenges proactively before they become larger cultural, operational, or people-related issues.

### Diversity Consultancy Services

Our diversity consultancy support is designed to help organisations move beyond awareness and create workplaces where inclusion becomes part of everyday practice. As a trusted company providing workplace culture consultancy and inclusion strategy development, we focus on practical action, measurable progress, and realistic implementation.
