Disruptive Inclusion

What Disruptive Inclusion does

Disruptive Inclusion is a US-based, founder-led consulting practice operating as an LLC, delivering organizational culture design services primarily to health and science organizations. Founded and led by Dr. Jennifer Sarrett, who holds a PhD in Interdisciplinary Studies with a background spanning academia, public health, and DEI, the firm applies an evidence-based Organizational Culture Design (OCD) methodology grounded in Universal Design principles from architecture. The OCD framework is built around six core principles — Trust & Transparency, Expect & Respect Expertise, Collaboration & Conflict, Embedded Flexibility, Question the Status Quo, and Celebration — which structure the firm's delivery vehicles.

The service portfolio consists entirely of professional-services engagements: the Culture Is Strategy Workshop (a six-hour full-day structured session for leadership teams producing a prioritized action roadmap with 60-day follow-up), PI Leadership Coaching (a 3–6 month engagement for new principal investigators in biotech, pharma, and research institutes), Workplace Audit & Culture Design Lab (cultural audits via interviews, surveys, and policy review), Cultural Strategy integration work, Keynotes & Workshops for conferences and retreats, and a Culture Diagnostic offering. Distribution is exclusively direct and consultation-based, with all engagements sold privately to client organizations through consultation and quote-based pricing; no intermediaries, marketplaces, or public pricing exist. The firm has no disclosed institutional funding, no parent company, and operates with a single principal consultant plus occasional contracted support.

The target buyer mix spans enterprise leadership teams in healthcare (e.g., Better Health), biotech and pharma PIs, higher education (Emory University), financial services (a NYC hedge fund), and nonprofit/social services (Catholic Social Services of Washtenaw County, Second Chance Living PMI). Marketing relies on LinkedIn thought leadership (including the "Science of High Performance" newsletter), conference speaking (notably RISE National 2026), webinars, and website content — a B2B top-of-funnel approach aimed at converting speaking engagements and content consumption into private consulting engagements.
