"Diversity and inclusion should be high on the agenda in all organizations, but only 27% have made policies on it in the Netherlands. That really needs to change. This board game for teams facilitates important - and often uncomfortable - conversations that need to be had at all levels of an organization. From boardroom to shop floor."

Tessa van Soest, Director B Lab Benelux
"Let's play equal offers the opportunity to start a dialogue and promote mutual understanding without getting too personal. A game to be played to learn from and grow as a person and as an organization."

Nathalie van der Put, General Council, department of Legal & Corporate Affairs Danone Nederland
Cleverly made, confrontational and at the same time fun to play. I look forward to playing this game with our team.

Odette Bakker, Co-owner & director Dazure
