Designing inclusion architectures that drive performance, innovation, and purpose

Why inclusion?

Because it is central to the success of organisations. 

I ground my practice in this definition of inclusion: 

“Inclusion isn’t about the warm and fuzzies. It’s about creating an environment where every team member can fully contribute — in meetings, decision-making, customer service, supplier relations, and planning. There’s nothing more central to the bottom line or the employee experience.” (Harvard Business Review, 2024)

My Approach

A number of factors make my approach unique. I take a strategic steer, as opposed to a programmatic one to inclusion (see Insights). I draw from global insights, inhouse leadership roles, lived and professional experience to help organisations develop bespoke strategies on representation and inclusion that are directly aligned with and support their organisational mission. I focus on the systemic dimensions of representation and inclusion, and take an evidence-based approach to identify gaps and devise targeted actions accordingly. My approach combines strategic insight with practical tools, enabling organisations to embed inclusive excellence as a driver of innovation, growth, and social impact.

  • I research and develop strategies and policies that create and sustain inclusion systemically at these three levels: organisational, national and regional levels. By collaborating with leadership teams, I craft tailored policies and strategies that align inclusion with the mission of the organisation and its core business objectives.

  • I provide specialist advice to develop the building blocks of inclusion around behavioural and structural changes that are outcomes driven. Whether navigating cultural shifts or designing new processes, such as inclusive recruitment, I provide strategic insights and actionable plans to enhance organisational performance and purpose-driven outcomes.

  • I have found that making inclusive leadership the norm is the catalyst for change in organisations. As leaders become proficient in inclusive behaviours and practices, and become agents of change, they trigger a culture reset. I design and implement bespoke Inclusive Leadership Programmes that aim at triggering and enhancing both behavioural change and process changes.

  • The success of transformation journeys relies on the concept of distributed leadership in organisations. Inclusive Leadership programmes work optimally when supported by Learning and Development programmes across all hierarchies to create a holistic change ecosystem incorporating both top down and bottom-up approaches.

  • I have over a decade of coaching practice, supporting leaders in research institutes and international organisations. My practice focuses on enabling leaders to build clarity, resilience, and sustainable impact through systemic coaching approaches. I have particular expertise in coaching leaders who are poised to play a transformational role in their organisations.

Oneness: driving results through inclusion architecture

At the heart of my work is the richness of being human and the dividends that this represents for organisations. Diversity realises its full potential as a driver of organisational success only when anchored in inclusion architecture. 

I chose oneness as a metaphor for the interconnection of diverse groups of people in any one organisation. Inclusion architecture transforms differences — such as generational or functional diversity — into complementary strengths that drive higher performance, stronger results, and greater innovation.

What my clients say:

  • "Roshni Mooneeram's consultancy has been instrumental in transforming our approach to Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) at the Friedrich Miescher Institute for Biomedical Research (FMI). Her expertise in EDI governance, strategic advisory, and fostering an inclusive research ecosystem has been proven highly valuable. She has supported our team leaders with inclusive leadership practices to enhance our organisational culture and fostered a change in our ecosystem by involving everyone at the institute through the concept of shared leadership. Perhaps most impressively, while the topic of EDI can be challenging, Roshni’s balanced and pragmatic approach has brought key stakeholders together. There are clear indications that her consultancy has facilitated positive change at FMI, and I recommend her services to any organisation looking to take a strategic approach to EDI and foster an inclusive research environment.”

    Prof Dirk Schübeler, Director of the Friedrich Miescher Institute for Biomedical Research, Novartis Campus, Basel

  • “Roshni delivered a highly rated and engaging webinar on generational diversity in June 2024. Roshni’s session was very well prepared, tailored to the audience, very clear, and she expertly managed to keep participants deeply engaged throughout the session and the Q&A. She is an excellent speaker who brings a unique combination of knowledge, passion for the topic, kindness and gravitas. The reviews for her session were outstanding and many participants said they were moved and inspired to become inclusion champions.”

    Liliana Pao, Policy Officer for Diversity and Inclusion, Diversity and Inclusion Office DG HR, European Commission

  • "At EEX Group, we believe that diversity and inclusion are an important part of our success. We also believe that we find strength in combining different diversity dimensions to fulfil our purpose. This is an ongoing journey, that every individual colleague should contribute to, day by day. Roshni was a keynote speaker in our 2024 annual leadership meeting, and she provided a highly inspiring and elaborate insight into how to further shape such a journey as a global company in the years to come."

    Markus Vorbeck, EEX Group HR Director

  • “Roshni Mooneram is the kind of Strategic Consultant every organisation committed to Equity needs: her holistic practice leads to tangible positive results, swiftly promoting profound cultural shifts in complex, multinational scenarios. Throughout the years, I have observed her practice while setting up the University of Nottingham’s first international campus (in Ningbo, China). At the University of Nottingham’s UK Campus, she was commissioned by the Institute for Policy and Engagement to create a Roadmap for the University. She acted as Principal Investigator into policy-oriented research projects across Faculties and defined the processes that would enable the University of Nottingham to leverage its EDI informed research to influence policy: institutionally, regionally at the level of local authorities and businesses, and nationally at the level of Government. This report as well as her five-year strategy for the African continent, commissioned by the African Union: Building Resilience to Foster African Human Capital through Girls’ and Women’s Education for Sustainable development consolidated her profile as one of the most sought-after Global EDI strategists. In summary, I could not recommend Roshni more!”

    Maria Augusta Arruda, Director of the Brazilian Biosciences National Laboratory at the National Centre for Research in Energy and Materials (LNBio-CNPEM)
