profile
Our services are tailored to your needs based on our 3 key pillars:
measureable
scalable
impactful
We believe that one size fits NONE.
Our claim is to base our consulting services on evidence. In other words: We generate data which we use to deduce strategies in the field of D&I management. Or as a wise person once said: If you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it.
This is why we have developed the Inclusion Indicator, the most extensive tool currently available on the market to ensure the analysis of the current state of D&I in your organization.
Strategy consulting
We believe that one size fits none.
Whether you are a large corporate, SME or fresh start-up, our consultancy will find the tailor-made solution for you in order to push your D&I agenda forward.
Our many years of experience and expertise in the field of diversity management enable us to tailor our approach to the individual situation of our clients.
Full outsourcing
You lack the internal resources and expertise for D&I management that will truly incite and drive change?
We have both and will take it from here. And it doesn’t matter where you are starting from, as long as you want to head into the right direction.
We offer monthly retainers and various service packages according to your individual needs and are happy to work as one team with your managers, experts and stakeholders.

What we do
How we do it
Evidence-based diversity management means we generate and analyze data which we then use to develop strategies and measures in the area of diversity management and inclusion.
Specifically in these areas, for example:
- D&I strategy development, action plans, roadmaps incl. timings, milestones and individual responsibilities
- D&I KPI development and cascading along organizational structures and entities
- Creation of a Data Optimization and Accountability Framework in the area of D&I
- Development of D&I parameters for the ESG positioning of companies - focus on the “S” area and compliance with EU reporting standards
- Support and redesign of HR, strategy and transformation processes
- Set up, support and moderation of Business Resource Groups (BRGs)
- Design and implementation of DEI Masterclasses
- Content-wise coverage of all diversity dimensions and new work challenges
- Repositioning of D&I in brand & communication
The methods we use are as individual and different as the organizations themselves.
Here are some of the methods we work with:
- Experimental work, piloting and iterative circles
- Process analyses according to the principle of inclusion mainstreaming developed by us
- Methods of qualitative and quantitative social research, e.g. guided interviews, focus groups, surveys and pulse checks
- Technical processing with survey tools & statistical programs
- Randomized controlled trials
- Employer brand evaluations

indicator
The Inclusion Indicator is a digital tool for organizations, regardless of their size, industry or branch. It serves as a compass that sets the direction and lets you know where your inclusion journey should and should not go. Based on the results of the Inclusion Indicator, you will know where you currently stand in the area of D&I and which fields should receive increased attention in the future.

The Inclusion Indicator measures diversity & inclusion in 4 areas. The maximum achievable score in each quadrant is 90, summing up to a 360 degree assessment of your organization.
360 degree assessment
01 | Data Base & Transparency
How is data already being worked with, what data is available? What happens with the data? How transparent is the organization?
02 | Processes & Structures
How are processes and structures designed – for example, in the areas of HR, strategy and communication – to advance inclusion or to hinder it?
03 | Brand & Communications
How inclusive is your company’s external and internal communication? Is diversity a topic at all? How attractive is the organization’s (employer) brand?
04 | Culture & Values
How is day-to-day cooperation in the organization shaped and experienced? Which culture-creating actions reinforce inclusion, which counteract it?
The inclusion indicator has 2 phases:
phase II
analysis & reporting
- we evaluate the online portal data
- we assess the data gathered via the complementary methods
- we consolidate the evidence into a report & action fields
- we present the results to you & your stakeholders

Seon-Young Rang
in a nutshell
As she likes to say, Sonny speaks 4.5 languages (unfortunately her French hasn’t significantly improved in the past 20 years). Her most favorite movie of all time is Heat and she loves junk food, specifically french fries. She was born and raised in Vienna, but wouldn’t mind living in Barcelona part-time, because of the art, the culture, the food variety and the vino natural.
professional background
After her studies in Journalism & Communication Science as well as Global History & Global Studies (both University of Vienna), Sonny started her career in the classic advertising industry before moving to key account management and moving image production for the digital communications sector at VICE (now Virtue), including for T-Mobile (now Magenta Telekom), BMW and Vöslauer. After her return to classic brand management at Jung von Matt/Donau and positions in strategic planning and change communications, she worked in communication and diversity management at Erste Group Bank AG since 2019 and was most recently responsible for the D&I management of Erste Group’s IT arm, Erste Digital, in addition to her role in the group. When time permits, Sonny continues to work as a freelance account director in advertising – simply because it’s fun to think outside the box of your own business.
