The Institute conducts rigorous structural diagnostics for executive boards and HR leadership. We identify the systemic mechanisms driving extraction and replace them with accountable frameworks.
Led by our founder's 12-year tenure in executive corporate leadership, the Institute provides three core pathways for structural transformation.
A rigorous, deep-dive organisational audit into your enterprise's systemic mechanisms. We deploy our proprietary methodology to identify precisely where the Excellence Tax is being disproportionately applied to your BAME talent, measuring the hidden costs of code-switching, hypervigilance, and attrition. You receive a comprehensive board-level report with actionable, structural remedies.
Enquire about a diagnosticAn intensive, half-day strategy session exclusively for HR leadership and C-Suite executives. We move beyond basic diversity awareness training to focus on organisational psychology and accountability frameworks, developing measurable strategies to retain Black talent and mitigate the £11,170 annual excess cost per professional.
Schedule a board briefingHigh-impact presentations designed to shift paradigms at your next corporate event or away-day. Delivered by Lead Researcher Natasha Williams, these keynotes introduce the Excellence Tax™ framework, validating the experiences of professionals while clearly outlining the business case for structural change.
View speaking portfolioThe Institute is currently developing a groundbreaking, CPD-aligned qualification tailored specifically for DEI practitioners, HR leaders, and corporate strategists. This intensive programme will train professionals to independently identify, measure, and dismantle systemic extraction using our proprietary methodology.
The physical and emotional toll of systemic extraction does not just impact the individual—it critically impacts the bottom line of the organisation.
Our research, drawn from 1,037 UK Black professionals, indicates that the compounded costs of elevated sickness absence, reduced engagement, and high turnover rates equate to a hidden organisational cost of £11,170 annually per BAME professional.
