Our Team

Let's Meet

Danny Sanders

Founder & Inclusion partner

Strategic consultant and innovator. Danny sees opportunities in difficult subjects. As a Status Quo-Changer, he is not afraid to bring up ideas from unexpected angles and taking risks won't hold him back. With empathy, Danny dives in every assignment in a coördinating and honest way. At the same time, he knows how to inspire people and achieve sustainable results. A thinker and a doer of deeds.

Jade Wissink

Co-founder and trainer

Self-employed entrepreneur with a heart for public affairs. As a communications manager and inclusion advocate, Jade works on impactful projects in the field of innovation, democracy and inclusion. Her strength is building bridges between the organisation and its stakeholders.

Tatiana Alekseeva

Business analyst and inclusion manager

Inclusion for Tatiana is like a multifaceted diamond. It goes about care and courage, humility and neutrality, compassion and intense listening. She makes a diamond shine by bringing views and opinions on the subjects together, enriching choices of the majority with wisdom of the minority and translating a vision into structured policies supporting an organisational value. Tatiana's superhero skills are data-driven change management, emotional intelligence, and humour.

Daphne Gehrels

Sociologist and Researcher

Daphne is a true connector. She likes to make connections between people, between ideas, between theory and practice, between the small details and the bigger picture. She knows that in the end everything is connected and that the forest is not just the sum of the trees. She sees the work in the space of diversity and inclusion as a way to reconnect the many loose threads that we have come up with in our society and thus arrive at a more beautiful whole. Daphne has an academic background in both Organisational Sciences and (European) Sociology and has spent a lot of time abroad, which has given her both a critical and sensitive view of the world.

Lindy Maris

Lindy Maris

Trainer and founder @ Impact a la carte

Not only using your head, but also your heart, in your work and beyond: Lindy Maris discovered the added value of this approach, both for herself, for her happiness at work and for the world around her. Today she helps other professionals to achieve the same and also work more from the heart. Lindy develops and provides masterclasses for The Inclusion Studio, together with founder Danny Sanders. She is committed to raising awareness on this theme. She is also the founder of training agency Impact a la carte. Impact a la carte combines skills training with social impact.

Sergio Bartelink

Data Analyst

Sergio is half Dutch and half Argentinian, which is reflected in his passion for analysis combined with a focus on social involvement. Sergio is an energetic and helpful person who likes to take initiative. He enjoys discussing issues in detail and finding the creative solutions together. Because he likes to automate repetitive tasks, it is important for Sergio to come up with long-term solutions. Sergio is fascinated by technology and how people interact with that. Ultimately, the most important thing for Sergio is to find answers and thus enable people to focus on what they themselves have passion and quality for.

,,

The (diversity and inclusion) policy audit by The Inclusion Studio was a valuable addition to EBN B.V. (Energy Management Netherlands). The report was thorough and well-researched, and the team was able to answer all questions we had about diversity and inclusion. I would highly recommend their services to any organisation looking to review and improve their own organisation in terms of diversity and inclusion.
