Don’t just take our word for it…

“Such an accessible pitch and tone. It was exciting, progressive and practical. The audience left feeling buoyed and equipped. Can we keep them please!”
Penguin Randomhouse
“Absolutely wonderful. I was particularly taken by the way you reframed recognising our privilege as an opportunity, and the subsequent practical elements were extremely useful and clarifying. I came away with a much deeper sense of how I can apologise well, promote dialogue over debate, and actively create a safe environment for those around me.”
IDEO
“Allyship in the Workplace has had a profound effect on many of our team. The session was frank but without judgment, they confronted the work we have to do while energising even the most sceptical to do so.”

“I can’t speaking highly enough of this training, it’s so interactive and informative. Leyya and Roshni are the most likeable and knowledgeable team. From the content to how it was delivered have all been highly praised.”
MONZO BAnk
“The Other Box creates a safe space for diversity and inclusion topics to come alive through shared discussion. Getting people out of their seats, talking about their own experiences and perceptions in a safe space was really powerful and dare I say it, enjoyable.”
DEPOP
“The quality of content and delivery is very high, and there’s no corporate baloney or messing around - the messaging and learnings are direct, impactful, and have helped equip our leaders with tools and understandings that will stay with them.”
PanMacmillan
“You created an open and constructive environment for us to open up and explore some of the biases. The way you spoke about some of the concepts was so thought-provoking, surprising and practical. We have never been so engaged in a training session before.”
ANIMADE
“Working with The Other Box has been a joy! The feedback we've had across our entire team has been incredible. The training has been insightful and the way they approach the course with sensitivity was second to none. There were processes and support measures linked to D&I we could implement immediately off the back of the training, as well as some longer more strategic goals we have set ourselves. We mainly want to say a massive thank you!”
MISSOMA
“Working with The Other Box has been one of the smartest decisions we've ever made. Our team enjoyed how interactive the sessions were, with audience participation and break out groups that kept everyone involved (even over Zoom). Leyya and Roshni created a safe space where everyone felt able to share, learn, and grow.”

“We love The Other Box! We collaborated with them for a company offsite and they have had a big impact on our team’s engagement with Diversity & Inclusion. Perhaps most importantly, these are warm, empathetic and caring people that we loved working with. We instantly felt we could trust them with our company’s hardest problems and ‘darkest secrets’, knowing they help us see our way through them without judgment.”

“The Other Box delivered a unique and interesting workshop on unconscious bias, which was thought-provoking and interactive. We were challenged to test knowledge of our own biases and look at ways to overcome barriers and challenges in the workplace, in a fun and interactive way!”
URBN
“Deep and thought-provoking! The team are asking really great questions on how they can further explore ways they can be an ally. Thank you both again for authentic approach on this topic and keeping it real-even when it is uncomfortable!”
INTUIT QUICKBOOKS
“A massive thank you to The Other Box for providing such an engaging and thought-provoking session. The response was overwhelmingly positive! All of the activities really challenged us on the way we think and how we should start questioning many of the things that we see/hear/do that may be culturally or socially offensive but often go unnoticed.”
Admiral Group
“Interesting and insightful. Attendees left in confidence that they had improved knowledge and understanding of terms relevant to diversity and inclusion. We know that this will empower our staff with the confidence to have open conversations with colleagues around them.”
THE HUDSONBEC GROUP
“We have been researching Unconscious Bias training for a long time and everything we came across sounded very dry and quite traditional - then we found The Other Box! The training went down a treat with our staff, it was engaging, interactive, fast paced and fun and left our team armed full of knowledge of Bias' plus a real insight into our own biases and how we can improve as individuals. Would highly recommend and can't wait to try out some of their other courses!”
The RED CROSS (ICRC)
“Pragmatic, clear, and well-illustrated. Your pedagogy allowed us to unlearn and learn, which is a constant work that we all have to do if we want to make progress towards a more diverse and inclusive work environment.”
Gravity Road
“Allyship in the Workplace was an incredibly important and powerful step in our journey to be a more inclusive and diverse company. Leyya and Roshni are remarkable teachers and facilitators; approaching the session and our people with sensitivity but also the boldness required to make change.”
Restless Development
“The Other Box’s impactful session on Allyship in the Workplace was the highlight of the day for many and provided really practical tools and framing in understanding intersectionality, our personal privilege and the journey of practicing allyship and taking action.”
Hijinx
“The team are buzzing! They’ve already set up a dedicated allyship slack channel and there are reading recommendations flying around, as well as some diversifying of social media feeds, it was incredibly encouraging and motivating!”
BROOKLYN BROTHERS
Wital, inspiring and genuinely educational. Great to have tangible take outs alongside the much bigger conversation topics. Leyya and Roshni were warm, engaging and incredibly adept about talking through the plethora of topics covered. Every question was welcomed and answered in a calm and supportive way. An all around fantastic session and a must for any modern company.
