The Team
Inclusion Junction is built around a simple belief: that the most important leadership skill in a mixed, complex workplace is the ability to manage people who are different from you - and that it can be learned.
Everyone on this team brings that belief to life from a different angle.

Rani Dhanda
Director
Early in my career, I worked as a research associate alongside a senior colleague who never made expectations clear. I guessed what was expected of me. My work went unacknowledged. I felt invisible - and eventually, disposable. That experience of being managed badly, and what it costs the person on the receiving end, is why I do what I do.
I founded Inclusion Junction because I've seen what happens when leaders don't get this right - and what becomes possible when they do.
Over two decades working across professional services, higher education, and the third sector - including serving on a Personnel Committee dealing with staff rights, handbooks, and sensitive organisational concerns, and providing direct support to a Director on complex staff matters - I've supported leaders to have the conversations they've been avoiding, make fairer decisions under pressure, and build teams where different people can actually do their best work.
I previously taught at Strathclyde University on working across differences, and I bring that academic grounding directly into practical, sector-specific leadership work. Clients tell me consistently that they leave with language, tools, and confidence they can use immediately - not training that sits on a shelf.
Inclusion Junction holds CPD accreditation, and all programmes meet the standards required for continuing professional development in regulated sectors.
