  • In today's world, authentic inclusion is more than a buzzword; it's a business imperative.

    Named as one of Vogue Business' 100 Innovators in 2024, Ben partners with Fashion & Luxury brands to go beyond surface-level diversity initiatives and create truly inclusive cultures.

    His approach is rooted in transformation working with your brand to:

    • Uncover blind spots: Through in-depth assessments, we identify areas where your current inclusion efforts may be falling short.

    • Challenge the status quo: Together, we redefine what inclusion can look like for your brand, setting realistic goals that align with your values.

    • Develop a tailored roadmap: I'll guide you in creating a strategic plan that embeds inclusion into every aspect of your business, from talent to culture.

    • Sustain lasting change: My work empowers your leaders and teams to embrace inclusive practices and drive meaningful progress.

    Together, we will create a workplace where everyone feels valued, respected, and empowered to contribute their best.

The Challenge

The main challenge in advancing diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) in the fashion and luxury industry, where there is a common thread, is that despite progress in improving the diversity of its external image, there is still a significant lack of diversity within leadership and decision-making roles, which hinders the development of an inclusive culture and equitable opportunities for all employees.
