(ide)ate Studio is a Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) consultancy that helps organisations explore what's possible beyond the status quo.

β€œOur organisations, and certainly our world, continue to be unacceptably inequitable, exclusive & homogenous.”

Hi and welcome!

Hi and welcome!

I’m Lyndal, the Founder of (ide)ate Studio and a Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) Practitioner.

Before (ide)ate, I led the solution design at a leading DEI consultancy, working with organisations across APAC to deliver bespoke DEI training and advisory for clients.

Working in DEI opened my eyes to how inequitable and exclusionary our societies and workplaces are for marginalised populations.

It developed within me both a radical impatience about shifting beliefs that hold marginalised communities back as well as a dedication to advocating for the tremendous potential that exists when we are all free to fully realise our skills, creativity, knowledge and life’s purpose.

As someone born into a life of privilege, (ide)ate is my small attempt to acknowledge this privilege and the responsibility that (I believe) comes with it.

Clients worked with across APAC:

Our Mission


Persistent exclusion - intentional or unintentional - perpetuates inequity and limits our potential as a society.

As a for-purpose organisation, we exist to promote greater social and economic inclusion of marginalised communities while accelerating our collective potential, with 5% of (ide)ate's profits re-invested into NFP's who support this shared vision.

Our initiatives ladder up to various United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Take a look β†’

Imagine a world where organisations and societies flourished together.

A world where individuals are free to pursue - without barrier - their full potential, their skills, knowledge, creativity, and passion.

That's the world we're working towards.
