About Us
Our Mission
To provide independent consultancy tailor-made to your company's need. To improve staff wellbeing and engagement for all.
Five Ways Consultancy was founded by Nakita Gilbert. Nakita is a graduate of the University of Cambridge where she read Politics, Psychology and Sociology (specialising in Psychology). Since graduating Nakita has spent several years in research (resulting in several papers of which she is a co-author). Nakita then went on to work as part of Human Resources coordinating Equality, Diversity and Inclusion related projects. This included working in higher education and supporting the construction and submission of Athena SWAN applications, the building of wellbeing programmes and critical analysis and action planning following staff surveys.
This background and experience led Nakita to set up Five Ways Consultancy to bring together interrelated areas of work under the heading of staff engagement. Five Ways now offers a range of packages and individually tailored services to help companies critically assess and improve staff engagement.
Maintaining staff wellbeing and engagement are crucial to the success of any business. The cost of staff sickness due to mental ill-health in UK is estimated at £70bn annually! After several years experience in this area, it became apparent that getting a good quality, all inclusive package focussing on the wellbeing and engagement of staff was incredibly difficult to find. Five Ways Consultancy meets this need.
Five Ways Consultancy is set up with the workforce in mind. It is a small business
offering a
range of services to improve staff engagement. This is achieved in five ways:

These services can be offered as part of a mixed package or as individual products depending on the needs of the client. Please use the ‘Our Services’ tab to find out more about individual services.
