Why work with Inkling

Inkling’s purpose is to elevate humanity. We awaken human potential and, in doing so, revolutionise how we live, work and lead.

Driven by the science of inclusion, diversity and psychological wellbeing, Inkling equips individuals to create extraordinary lives and careers, and enables organisations to build cultures where everyone flourishes.
Technology is transforming how we live and work at an unprecedented rate, and our brains are simply not equipped to manage these new demands. This begs the question: in an environment that is faster- paced and more fragmented than ever before, how can we create workplaces that encourage innovation, contribution and belonging?
Inkling’s programs create sustained shifts in mindset, brain and behaviour that awaken individuals and organisations to their full potential. We help our clients to not only meet the demands of the transforming world, but to lead the transformation. We are proud of our results:
100% of participants report that our programs have helped them to believe they have what it takes to be an outstanding leader
86% of participants state that our programs have helped build their resilience

In 2016, Inkling partnered with Atlassian to deliver Ignite; a program for emerging leaders to equip them with the know-how to navigate the invigorating, rewarding but often challenging world of leadership. This program is designed to inspire people early in their leadership journey and set them on a pathway of extraordinary and sustained success and fulfilment.
Twelve women participated in the program; attending a two-day workshop and a group coaching session. The results from our evaluation of the program are detailed on the following page.
Atlassian continues to partner with Inkling to develop leaders within their organisation.

Program Testimonials

“The Ignite workshop was simply amazing. I found clarity amidst my own insecurities as a new leader, and support from a group of women going through similar experiences. Being able to identify my strengths and work through exercises to apply these strengths as a group was an incredibly motivating experience.”
“This two day workshop was a fantastic experience for me and my group. I learned a lot about myself, but also about the other women from my company - some of whom I hadn't met before. It was wonderful to learn alongside my peers (and seniors!), and to build trust with one another. Thank you for a great workshop!”
“I absolutely loved Ignite. I have been to a similar program before, but this was a lot more intimate, deep and focused on improving ourselves before improving the business (although one comes with the other). The timing was great as well, as I was feeling very insecure when I started the program, and got out of there feeling a lot more like myself.”
