The Tectre team are well versed in helping organisations recognise and maximise the potential that can be found in a diverse workforce. We specialise in focused training, recruitment and business-to-business focused consulting at whatever stage you are at with your Diversity & Inclusion strategy.
We can facilitate workshops to support executive teams in their understanding of the business case for diversity and invigorate them to lead the way. Our consultants can guide you through crafting and implementing your stategy and our trainers can deliver a development programme for your managers and teams to bolster this in order to create a more inclusive workplace. Our recruitment teams can support your positive action campaigns to ensure you are attracting a wide variety of talented candidates.
Our founder, Gillian Arnold, is committed to seeing an increase in the numbers of women working in the STEM industries. Her background is technology, so it is no surprise that we started with Tech. She ran the BCS Women Group for the British Computer Society and won a UN prize for the work of that team.
