Creating a Culture of Belonging with Nebel Crowhurst

What does it really take to create a culture where people feel like they belong?

In this episode, we were honoured to be joined by Nebel Crowhurst—People & Culture trailblazer and HR Magazine’s 6th Most Influential HR Professional of 2022. Known for her bold leadership in Diversity & Inclusion, Nebel shares what it takes to build a workplace where people can show up as their whole, authentic selves.

We explore:

• What Nebel has done differently to earn national recognition

• How to build D&I strategies rooted in real organisational culture, not just values stuck on the wall

• The power of storytelling and reverse mentoring in shifting perspectives

• Why emotional intelligence is non-negotiable for leaders championing inclusion

• How to interpret and act on employee feedback with humility

As Nebel explains, the foundation of belonging is psychological safety, and the responsibility to create it lies with leadership. Without it, your D&I strategy will remain surface-level, no matter how well-intentioned.
