About Tan’s Topics

Welcome to Tan’s Topics! Once just a personal blog I wrote for fun and to document or comment on affairs important to me or something I was interested in, it is now transformed into a go-to source for top quality ED&I (equity, diversity and inclusion) consultancy services. So whether you’re looking for an ED&I strategy or bullying, discrimination and harassment to be written or looked over, your work or culture to be audited, or a speaker to deliver talks and workshops on various topics, I’m your TAN! I can also provide consultation on building and maintaining positive, diverse and inclusive workplace cultures, as well as services including freelance writing and marketing services.

With 15 years experience in writing and marketing and several years experience in delivering ED&I (equity, diversity and inclusion) talks and training, I can help your organisation diversify your external help, improve its workplace culture, or simply maximise your marketing potential… I am now currently the UK’s FIRST and ONLY ED&I consultant that specialises in ESEA (East and Southeast Asian) topics.

Read a preview of my memoir “Dear Ricky”

Originally a thought dump journal during the pandemic, “Dear Ricky” became a story I developed over the course of a year that divulged my life at the time. Based on many true incidents, “Dear Ricky” is a frank, emotional and rollercoaster ride of events that lay bare the trials and tribulations of mental health and wellbeing, grief, one’s identity, culture and heritage, work, body image, and love.

While I finished a year’s worth of entries, I published the first month as a preview for ESEA Heritage Month in 2024, with more than 50 people receiving physical copies of it. You can now download a copy of it below, where proceeds go towards to helping me to self-publish the full book in the future.
