Embedding Inclusivity at Great Portland Estates (GPE)

Great Portland Estates (GPE) is a UK-based property investment and development
company specialising in owning, managing, and developing commercial real estate
in central London. Their portfolio includes office spaces, retail properties, and
mixed-use developments, with a strong focus on sustainability and flexible
workspaces.

In 2023, we partnered with GPE to support their organisation-wide inclusivity
efforts, ensuring that every employee had the knowledge and tools to contribute
to a more inclusive workplace.

Our approach included:

● Discovery & Insight Gathering – Conducting senior leadership interviews,
employee focus groups, and a review of key documentation to understand
existing challenges and opportunities.

● Bespoke Workshop Design – Collaborating closely with the GPE team to
develop a highly interactive 2.5-hour workshop, tailored to their unique
culture and goals.

● Organisation-Wide Delivery – Rolling out the workshop to all GPE
employees, receiving overwhelmingly positive feedback.

● Executive Team Session – Hosting a dedicated session for the Exec Team,
sharing key insights and strategic recommendations to guide their ongoing
inclusivity work.

This engagement helped embed inclusivity more deeply across GPE, equipping
leaders and employees with practical tools to foster an even more representative
and welcoming workplace.
